See Through Plants

In a country garden it's good to have beds and borders that don't look to manicured. If you want a relaxed feel to the garden then a natural look is often the way to go. One way to achieve this country garden style is to grow what I call See Through Plants towards the front of a border. The best plants for this are tall but not solid, they have slender stems that move with the breeze and you can easily look through them to see what's on the other side.

Many See Through Plants are at their best in gardens around the UK right now. Teasels, Verbena bonariensis, grasses such as Miscanthus and Stipa gigantica and even tall annual flowers such as Ammi and Cosmos all fir the bill.
