Edible Lanscape Elements: Border Plants

Border plants are beautiful when placed near edges such as walkways , driveways and the edges of a patio.  They are typically a perennial or annual border that are combined with flowering plants.  They are also beautiful used in island plantings that break up a large expanse of lawn area.

If you are using any of these in your borders, add some flowers for contrast.  But if you really want to go all the way with your edibles, then you could add any of the edible flowers which I will be covering soon.

Luckily this list has common items that will be easy to find at places like Gurney’s Seed and Nursery and Henry Fields Seed and Nursery or your own local nurseries too.  But never fear, I’m still working on the more unusual ones for you still!
