Also any good websites on Herbaceous Border design??
I designed and built a large mixed herbaceous border over several years - beginning with the demolition of a WWII Nissen hut to make room for it! The step-by-step descritptive story can be viewed on my web site.
Check out the 'Garden World' subsite, then go to 'Gardening Guides'. Look for 'The Design and Development of a Mixed Herbaceous Flower Border Parts 1 and 2'.
Hope it both helps and inspires.
