Three of the Best (w/c 2/4/12)


As a new feature, I will posting each week photos of three plants that are currently looking good and are worthy of inclusion in a garden. Here are last weeks:-

Clockwise from top left - Bergenia cordifolia - An evergreen perennial that is fine in both sun and shade. Its big leaves act as a foil for other foliage textures. Works well en masse. Clematis armandii - Vigorous evergreen climber that has beautifully scented flowers. Magnolia soulangeana -A small to medium sized tree that is fairly common but spectacular nonetheless. Even when its flowering is cut short by the weather its lush foliage and attractive shape earn it a place in the garden.
