Dry Mediterranean Border

Shimmering evergreen grasses and grey, architectural plants contrast brilliantly with flowers of yellow, blue and purple. The Mexican Fleabane (Erigeron) exhibits daisy flowers virtually all summer.

Planting tips:

Don't worry, you don't have to cover your border with gravel. All this bed requires is a sunny, sheltered spot and an open, free-draining soil. The Mexican Daisy (Erigeron), the grasses and the spurge (Euphorbia) is likely to self-seed in a gravel path or between paving slabs.This creates a very attractive, natural effect but if you don't like it: spot spray with weedkiller.

This design will fit into a border 3.5m long by 1.75m wide.
