This is the new big border from the Leylandii hedge at the back to the orchard. I've just planted it with five rhododenrums one in red, one in purple, one pink purple pink, one ceonothus which is as blue as this script. The buddlieja remain from the previous plan three white, one gold and one pink interspersed with moonlight evening primroses and Mexican hyssop all of which attract butterflies and bees.
There are lots of bulbs like grape hyancinth, iris dandiforii, polyanthus and primroses and scilla and other small bulbs.
Coming up bulbs daffodils and narciscii in the orchard
