Start with a simple colour palette and repeat plants through the border to bring the scheme together. Compare mature sizes and flowering months, allowing enough room for growth and access for care. Explore summer colour for flowering inspiration, spring and autumn collections to extend the season, or shade plants for sheltered parts of the garden. Bring your garden photos to Newlands in Clondalkin and our horticultural team can help you work through the planting.
Select colours you enjoy and repeat them through the planting.
Use eventual height and spread to arrange plants without overcrowding.
