Garden Design – Which Bedding Plants Go Best With Junipers?
While bedding plants are primarily chosen as color elements in the garden, it is worthwhile remembering that they possess other characteristics that inevitably affect, positively or negatively, the overall nature of the design. One cannot ignore their foliage texture and color, or their size, shape and form. Bedding plants are rarely grown in isolation from other plant types, but rather, in association with them, such as in the foreground to shrubs, bushes and trees. If the latter are so chosen as to form a definite and clear motif, then the bedding plants ought to complement them in stylistic terms.
