The plan for the wild garden flowers is smaller than the others in this book. Wildflowers are never quite as grandiose as the plants used in a typical garden flowers or herbaceous border. They need a more intimate setting.
This plot is designed for a corner of a property and asks that a deciduous tree here a Japanese maple be included for open shade during the hot summer. A birdbath is provided since birds and wild-flowers go together. Stepping stones should be in the plan so you can walk directly into the garden flowers to see the flowers close-up. Bloom will begin in early spring and continue into the fall.
You might think that cutting fresh flowers both for friends and for the homefront would quickly deplete our flower garden flowers. Not so. Rather than denude various parts of our permanent flower garden flowers to fill a vase, my wife and I have included an old Victorian idea in our garden flowers plan: a cutting garden flowers. We grow an abundance of annuals for color, plus a few choice perennials, all specifically grown for bouquets.
