Successional planting is the secret behind this Summerhouse Border designed for as long a season as possible. Spring bulbs and annuals start the display, then as they, which we cut back in mid July as the display gets tired. At this point we interplant late summer annuals, such as ‘Purity’, and tender perennials such as dahlias. These completely transform the border, and complement later-flowering perennials such as eupatoriums. It is a lot of work but worth it.
