FROM BARE TO BEAUTIFUL

A naked wall is just looking for attention – so give it a new garden bed with lush plantings, then spruce up your side passage, too!

1 TINY BUT TOUGH

Try this compact form of coastal rosemary, called ‘Zena’. It comes out with dainty little mauve or white flowers during spring.

2 MAKE IT GRAND!

You’ll love the velvety bronze undersides to the rich green leaves of the evergreen magnolia ‘Teddy Bear’. Its large and gloriously creamy flowers appear in early to late summer.

3 YOU’RE WELCOME

Be strategic with your garden furniture – an arch hints at something exciting beyond!

4 WISE CHOICE

Clumps of salvia ‘Blue Cloud’ will turn out these flower spires up to 1m tall all summer. Then, in winter, the leaves can turn a lovely burnished purple.

5 CASTING SHADE

Grey is always a great backdrop and helps other colours to pop – like the bronze on the magnolia trees, the creamy gardenia flowers and the hints of purple from the yet-to-explode statice.
