i have just finished the garden to the front and have two small terraces. i
am looking for perennial flowering plants or small shrubs to give me colour
thoughout the year. if poss would like some to attract butterflies & bees.
so far have thought of:

hebe, crocus, snowdrop, daffs, tulip, cosmos & tom thumb fuscia

If the terraces are in the sun and fairly well drained, herbs are good
for bees - thymes in different colours, winter savory (flowers late in
the season) etc.
