Green and white border

16 October
At last the hostas arrived and I can get the new green and white border planted up. I was worried that the soil would be sodden but it was mostly OK and in good heart after all the compost and feed that's been worked in over the summer. The original plants (those which we decided to keep anyway) have been replanted, lots of bulbs added and the new hostas plus a few ferns along with a honeysuckle, a big grass and a lonicera purpera have all gone in. Just the roses now and a couple of hostas on back order and it will be done. I'm sure there will be a few casualties and few gaps to be filled next year but at the moment it's looking good, full of promise.
