Great garden Yatsura. icon_thumleft

Love the way you've used Cyperus and Sauromatum in the borders, they go great there, not so sure about the scent from the latter though, with the possibility of so many of them blooming at slightly different times!!! :lol:

The look fits in so well though, did they take long to establish?

Given these out before, but that's a garden that deserves an OBE ("Oh Brilliant Effort") icon_thumright

After what would have been a slow start after last Spring, the Cannas have done brilliantly. Mine are way behind.

Nigel the Sauromatum started as 1 plant about 10 years again, it has just spread everywhere! But I really like that it ties everything together.The Cyperus also started as 1 plant, I just keep dividing it every year.

I think the plant you are referring to is a Begonia luxurians. It's my first year of trying one of these.

Wonderful garden love everything about it. Love the tropical full boarders and the mature plants.

What wood have you used for the decking and what is the edging around the garden please? ...botu are things I need to do in my garden.
