This late summer tapestry has been created by weaving together late season perennials and ornamental grasses. Rather than each having their own space, the partners each mingle, encroach and intertwine on and with the other as a reflection of their perfect marriage. This plant palette can be easily replicated in many sunny garden situations. It includes the charming Anemone × hybrida ‘Serenade’ (Japanese Anemone), Sedum ‘Matrona’ (Stonecrop) and Stipa calamagrostis (Spear Grass).

Low care, this charming planting is also deer resistant. Enjoy!
