Lovely border subtle tones compliment one another - nice use of varying heights to keep eye interested.

Parts of the garden are very dry - we face SW so get lots of sun. The top border is the driest, and salvias (several varieties) grow really well there. They provide colour for months. I prefer purple ones!
