The White Border by the Pool
Back
1 To the right the border to be and to the left the Cotoneaster-planting, backed by the hawthorn-hedge and the tall trees on the neighbouring ground
2 Anemone 'Honorine Jobert' and in the background the Amelanchier-grove, where the new house now is  situated.
3 Anemone 'Honorine Jobert'
4 Anemone 'Honorine Jobert'
5 The grandchild Dennis edging - in the border Yucca filamentosa backed with Juniperus chinensis 'Blaauw'
6 Yucca filamentosa with Salix helvetica and Betula nana
7 Salix helvetica
8 Iris germanica 'White Knight' and Iris sibirica 'Snow Queen'
9 Geranium sanguineum 'Album'
10 Geranium sanguineum 'Album'
11 Paradisea liliastrum
12 Scabiosa caucasica 'Miss Willmott'
13 Ginkgo biloba. The whole of the "white border" had to be removed when the new house was built, to get more space for the grandchildren to play around the pool. I planted a  Ginkgo in a small plot by the water-tap
14 Cardamine enneaphyllos invades the whole ground under the Ginkgo in spring, together with Dicentra spectabilis
15 Ulmus xhollandica 'Wredei', Salix lanata and in the background Picea abies 'Inversa Pendula'. A new border was planted along the white wooden fence raised to the new house, entirely  in white, grey, pink and yellow colours. The gate of course was covered in Humulus lupulus 'Aureus'
16 Clematis macropetala 'Rosy O'Grady' growing in Alnus 'Imperialis'
17 Clematis 'Comtesse de Bouchaud'
