In this mixed House Border, the
red flowers of Rosa ‘Florence
Mary Morse’ bring early colour alongside the white sprays of Persicaria x fennica ‘Johanniswolke’. The tall, slender annual corncockles are woven through the border plants, and, along with alliums and bronze fennel, help to unify the plantings
and create a naturalistic scene.
