Choosing structural plants:
In this session, we will look at choosing structural plants. Adding structure is nearly always a must in a planting scheme and there is a large choice of plants to choose from to add to the atmosphere of a garden (rather than always choosing the same few plants). We will discuss the function of structural and anchor plants but also more transient structure, for instance in a mixed border. And we will discuss a range of plants to hopefully increase your planting palette. There will be time for questions.
This is the second in a series of six Bitesize Planting CPD's with Anna Ribo
