Plant of the Month for August

More grey skies but this does not deter us from our outdoor activities. However, it does not allow the garden to be shown off at its best. Even the heather beds are a bit more drab than usual.


Hecate and Mili are obsessing about all and any little, insect, amphibian, bird or mammal. Naturally the pond is a prime observation point.
On the other hand I am enjoying the grasses in their summer glory and my plant of the month is the Bunny Tail grass (right) just ahead of the pony tail grass (left).


It is the tactile nature of these grasses that I find so appealing. My planting allows for them to be easily touched as you ascend the path towards the blackberries and the composting area.
