Plan for Oak-shaded border

Latest planting plan submitted for our new client in East Finchley.  This is for a deep border that is shaded for a large part of the day by a majestic mature Oak located within the same garden.

The crux of the plan is a matrix of the low growing Adiantum pedantum fern with a smattering of shimmering grass (Deschampsia cespitosa 'Goldtau').  From out of this rise tall spires of  honey-coloured Digitalis ferruginea, which will keep their impressive shape well into the winter.
