BBC Gardeners' World Live 2025 - Beautiful Borders

The Milky Way

The Milky Way
This border attempts to connect night and day. To experience the alien world of a garden at night during the daytime, dark leaved plants have been used. When the usual green colours disappear, a border starts looking unfamiliar, where the visitor ostensibly sets foot in an alternate universe, more familiar to what can be experienced at night. The white flowers scattered around the border represent the stars, the white-greenish Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Irene Patterson’ represents the moon and the gravel path the Milky Way.
