Hey Fu......it's me again
I feel like I'm stalking you
We've got this side gardenbed which is almost 60cm deep ie from wall to fence. ( I will be digging out that c**p & filling it with the right stuff, in case you were wondering
)
I'm thinking of planting murrayas there right along the fence line. Now, I've had them before so I know they can get quite bushy. I was wondering, would I be able to plant something like hellebores in front of the murrayas or would they get squeezed out ?
Also, how much should I dig out ? Should I take the existing soil level down to about the height of the wall or more ?
Thanks AGAIN!
Aw c'mon Fu, are you teasing ?
Seriously, what would you suggest ?
A hedge of Thomasii if you can find it over your way. Wonderful flowers and loves dry shady areas, handles a bit of sun. Beautiful soft green leaves.
These are incredible plants
Murraya for an exotic but a proven performer. Vibernam tinus. Vitex for some colour.
I won't bombard you with ideas
Oh Fu
I didn't expect you go to the trouble of suggesting alternatives
. But thankyou anyway
- I'll look them up.
Sorry, I meant to write Thomasia not Thomasii
Not sure if they are available in the East (they should be from native nurseries) but these grow in a wide range of soil types and are native to most states so chances are you can grow one there.
