Trees and Borders

The border of shrubs to the right of the driveway are recently planted, a design feature suggested by my younger artistic son. Plantings include flaxes, rhododendrons, hellebores and a beautiful purple Cotinus shrub. Mature trees tower above.

The big dark wine red leafed tree on the right is just an ordinary Prunus, much admired throughout summer. The tree to the left is a Golden Elm.

The Driveway Borders - Spring 2008

The big driveway trees give much seasonal interest. In spring there's lots of frothy pink and white blossom to enjoy. And later, after the richness of summer, all the leaves will turn red and gold - the fiery colours of autumn.
