Due South

Creating a flower bed exposed to the sun more than six hours a day is a stimulating and rewarding experience. Whether you’re looking for shrubs, perennials or annuals, the choice couldn't be larger. Nurseries overflow with plants that love a full day of sunlight.

This flowerbed - with its dominant reds and pinks - has more shrubs than perennials. The intensity of the contrast between the warm and cold colours is softened by the delicate presence of blue.

This composition - essentially composed of easily grown plants - would be ideal for the façade of a townhouse. The rich coloured plants, red in particular, would attract the eye and welcome us if they were placed near the entranceway.
