Just so our followers know we're still happening... first edge of box planted over winter and rest bought ready to install when weather is better. Decided on a row of Lonicera too - like the colour and have decided to sacrifice consistency with impulse. Could all go very wrong.
Worried about the bed in front of the kitchen window. It has an apple tree which dominates but in front of it is a south/west facing bed so gets sun for most of the morning and mid-afternoon. Sitting on the loo with one of my favourite gardening books (I have two - one is by Alan Titchmarsh (out of print) and the other is a shade garden book (again, out of print). Alan's book features an image of an abundant herb border which I think will go beautifully in front of the tree. Thinking of lavender, pot marigold, borage and sage to begin with.
Will keep you posted!
