Carex comans 'Frosted Curls'
A soft, silvery fountain of fine, curling foliage that shimmers in the light and adds delicate movement to any planting scheme.
This border has been thoughtfully designed to support a life rooted in wellbeing, nature connection and gentle ritual. With a soothing blend of aromatic herbs, soft textures and pollinator-friendly perennials, it offers beauty you can see, touch and even taste. From fragrant foliage used in teas and baths to luminous blooms that brighten the day, every plant invites you to slow down and savour the sensory richness of the garden.
It’s a space that nourishes both body and soul – easy to care for, full of purpose, and always quietly alive.
Ideal Conditions:
• Light: Full sun
• Soil: Free-draining—light loam, sandy or gravelly
• Exposure: Warm, open and sunny spots are ideal
• Style: Mediterranean-inspired, herbaceous or gravel garden layouts
Before planting, prepare the soil by adding grit or sand to improve drainage if the ground is heavy and enriched with compost to support healthy, fragrant growth. A finishing mulch of gravel will help retain warmth, keep weeds down and complete the sun-drenched feel of this calming, sensory-rich planting scheme.
Professionally designed by Leonie Cornelis, Award Winning Garden Designer and Author, in collaboration with Jo McGarry, Co-Owner of Caragh Nurseries, this border is arranged with graceful attention to height, texture and sensory rhythm. Upright spires rise through soft, aromatic cushions; flat umbels float like gentle landing pads for pollinators, while low-growing plants weave a delicate tapestry at ground level.
The result is a planting scheme that feels both naturalistic and deeply intentional—balancing bold floral highlights with subtle, calming movement. Every layer has a role: beauty, biodiversity, and wellbeing come together in a border that’s as practical as it is poetic. Many of the plants can be harvested for teas, baths or personal rituals, making this not just a garden, but a living part of your everyday rhythm.
You’ll receive a full, tailored planting plan with your Garden Story, showing you exactly how to lay out your border for balance, harmony and year-round enjoyment—whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just beginning your growing journey.
This border has been created with ease and longevity in mind. It’s a resilient, low-input planting scheme that thrives in sunny, free-draining spaces—perfect for dry gardens and those looking for beauty without constant upkeep.
Once established, these herbs and perennials settle into a self-sustaining seasonal rhythm, requiring only occasional pruning, minimal feeding, and a gentle eye through the year. Over time, the planting becomes even more robust—a living system that looks after itself while continuing to delight the senses.
With your Garden Story, you’ll receive a complete planting plan tailored to your space, along with seasonal reminders delivered throughout the year. These include short videos and images that clearly show you what to do and when—making it simple to care for your garden with confidence, no matter your level of experience.
