Autumn Hues

The end of summer can be a tricky time in the garden as many flowers will have already faded. It seems a shame to waste the last few months of the growing season though. This border will take you right through from the middle of summer and well into the autumn, making sure your garden is filled with colour.

Planting tips:

Dig in loads of composted manure before you plant and keep the plants well watered during dry spells. Cut back the perennials as they start to die back and apply a generous layer of mulch once a year.

You will need a bed 4m long by 1.75m wide in a sunny spot.
