Greenhouse border idea

4 replies

Laurasanford111 · 10/04/2024 11:21

Hello

I have small wildlife pond next to greenhouse, I have a border which is at front of greenhouse and goes around one side by pond and other side of greenhouse is a raised bed. I was going to leave these wood planters here and fill with cosmos and around the wood planters have catmint?! I'm not sure whether this would look silly or just take the pots away and have cosmos and cornflowers here, or full the front up with lots of little pots instead. I planted this jasmine here not sure why just trying to fill up the area a bit but I don't think it goes right here, think it will do better somewhere else maybe. I wanted to make the surrounding area of the greenhouse pretty looking.

Thank you

id leave the wood planters and plant them up, i have sedum, london pride around my green house so it looks ok most of the year, and a low shelf down one side for pots of plants that need attention.

I have hard standing round my greenhouse so it's pots all the way. Sedums, echevaria and the like - so it's easy to put the ones that need protection away in the winter.

Cosmos etc sound lovely, pinch them out though so they don't get too leggy and become a pain to walk past when wet.

Or you could put lavendar round it which would look good for most of the year and some small cultivar rosemary.
