For one of my favorite bouquets I use echinacea flowers, yarrow, feverfew, lavender, sage, apple mint, and catmint from my garden. |
Plants deer especially dislike include catmint, chives, lavender, sage, spearmint, thyme and yarrow-all useful and easy to grow in this area. |
The project has included the replanting of the formal garden in front of the house using boxwood, roses, catmint, lavender and clematis. |
Around the house are herbaceous beds with cranesbill, catmint, astrantias, irises and hostas in subtle colours. |
On the other hand, brightly colored variegated ribbon grass planted behind catmint backlights the catmint and makes its flowers recede. |
Shrub roses underplanted with catmint or lavender will seldom suffer from greenfly infestations. |
