Prairie Border 12 Plant Collection

Head Nurseryman and Gold medal winning planting designer Mike has conceived some border collections using his style of plants which take away the difficulty in choosing the right plants for the right place, and to guide in designing a specific look for your borders.

This border reflects the Prairie planting style of flowing, naturalistic mixed perennials and grasses, and has a sympathetic mix of heights, flower colours and seasonality. A range of 50-50 perennials and grasses will be chosen to obtain this effect. Plus a full colour, laminated A4 layout plan is included in the pack, to help you place your plants correctly into a border. along with detailed instructions of how to prepare the soil.
