Use a system to select your plants using flower colour
When the sight of the flowers without identity for 50% -
- 4 Permanent Herbaceous Plants,
- 1 Other Permanent Plants and
- 1 of your Bedding Plants -
out of 12 plants including the hedge in this part of the Mixed Borders, I think that some plant selection process should be followed to
- create a harmonious colour scheme instead of a potage of Cream and Peach, White, Greenish-Yellow, Violet-Blue, Pinkish-White, Sulphur-Yellow, Lavender-Pink, Lavender and Purple, with
- not having the plants in front either hiding the whole of the plant behind it or its plant label.
One method, which can be used, is a top-down hierarchy for selecting plants with the 10 levels being as described below and in the Plants Topic:-
- Plant Selection Level 1 -
Soil Type, Sun Aspect and Soil Moisture to give you a list of plants that will suit your Chalk Soil (Soil Type) in Part Shade (Sun Aspect) with Dry Soil (Soil Moisture).
- Plant Selection Level 2 -
Tree/Shrub Growth Shape and
Shrub/Perennial Growth refines that list to give the shape of the plant you want.
- Plant Selection Level 3 -
Plants for Any Soil,
Chalky Soils,
Others for Chalky Soil,
Clay Soil,
Others for Clay Soil,
Lime-Free Soils (Acidic),
Light Sandy Soil,
Peaty Soil refines that list to give you the correct plants for your soil.
- Plant Selection Level 4 - Garden Use like
Hedge,
Pollution Barrier,
Thorny Hedge,
Trees for Lawn and
Windbreak refines the list to give you the better plants for your use of them in the garden.
- Plant Selection Level 5 - Plant Use like
Attracts Birds and Butterflies for viewing,
Bee-Pollinated Plants for people who suffer from Hay Fever,
Groundcover plants to reduce your maintenance time,
Poisonous plants to avoid having in the garden for young children to sample,
Rabbit-Resistant Plants so that not all your plants get eaten by the local wildlife or
Flower Arranging Plants so that the flowers can be picked for display in the house. These plants add to the pleasure of creating and maintaining a garden.
- Plant Selection Level 6 - Plant Type like
Alpine,
Climber,
Conifer,
Deciduous Rhizome,
Deciduous Shrub,
Evergreen Perennial,
Evergreen Shrub,
Fern,
Grass,
Herbaceous Perennial,
Top Fruit,
Remaining Top Fruit,
Soft Fruit and
Trees Suitable for Small Gardens to get the right type of plant to suit the area where you want it.
- Plant Selection Level 7 -
Foliage Colour other than Green. If variegated foliage is required use green/yellow, green/white or green/other colour in garden but not 2 or all 3 of them. Addition of other single foliage colours is okay but please do not create an Xmas Tree Decoration.
- Plant Selection Level 8 - Flower Colour. Choose flower whose shade of colour will suit your planting scheme.
The Flower Colour Wheel Gallery contains photos split into 52 Comparison Pages; each page containing most of the flowers of this website from 1 of the 52 colours of the Colour Wheel.
- Plant Selection Level 9 - Plant Pruning. Reviewing what maintenance requirements are needed for each plant in the remaining lists may reduce their list length further.
- Finally, Plant Selection Level 10.
Groundcover Plant List Details. Check the height, width, foliage colour, flower colour, shape etc to give you a final list.
The Plant Name Pages contain a link to photos in a plant description page from a Photo Gallery within this website with its availability from a mail-order nursery in its Comment Row.
- Do not forget that many other plants besides those in this topic are detailed in the:-
A second method is to choose flowers from different plant types with the same flower colour from 53 colours using
A third method is to choose flowers from different plant types with the same flower colour from 12 colours for the months required for flowering using
A fourth method to add a plant type to your beds is to choose flowers from that plant type with the same flower colour for the months required using
- Bedding and
11 Flower Colours from 99 Bedding plants in the following uses:-

Whichever method is used to select your plants, it would be useful to look at Companion Planting to see
- if the plants selected would be friendly to each other
- whether there are any plants which could be added to aid the health and growth of your selected plants, and
- whether pest deterrent plants could also be planted to deter those pests
and to the cultivated poisonous plants with the wildflower poisonous plants to try and not poison yourself, your dog, cat or horse.

This RHS reply sent on 13 September 2013:-
Dear Mr C H Garnons-Williams,
Thank you for your enquiry to the Royal Horticultural Society's Members' Advisory Service. 
On investigation, I have concluded that the phlox labelled as 'Nesperis' in the garden is in fact: Phlox x arendsii 'Hesperis' . 
A search on the internet will generate a great deal of information on this cultivar.
I hope this information is helpful.
Yours sincerely,
Tony Dickerson

In the late 19th century, it was introduced to temperate regions of North America, South America, and Australia as an ornamental plant, and is now considered a major agricultural and wildland noxious weed. I would not recommend growing it in your garden, orchard or fields.

Create track and use the Square Foot Gardening system for:-
- wheelchair-bound disabled to use for radio-controlled models on the ground-level of the garden
- wheelchair-bound children/adults to maintain and replant the raised beds, whilst sitting with their knees under each raised bed
- school pupils to learn to grow plants
- wheelchair supported children/adults recovering in hospital, rest or care home to go outside, view them and/or maintain those beds themselves
- transport the raised bed into the patient's room, so that the patient can admire close-up what they normally see outside from their bed; and then for them to maintain or simply view for a while before that raised bed is returned outside that same day

Solution to Unemployment in Britain:-
"The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Auckland, New Zealand, have taught 3 rescue dogs to drive in an effort to encourage people to adopt and love shelter pets."
Besides the trained dogs who aid Blind People in walking, these other dogs could be trained to drive in Britain. Then, when a Blind person wishes to be driven, an unemployed person could earn their benefit by being in the front passenger seat giving directions to the dog who is doing the driving, but not to the dog who is sitting in the back seat alongside the Blind passenger.
The Blind person gets social interaction and the unemployed person - in aiding this blind person to go further than that person can walk for shopping or to visit friends - increases their self-esteem and self-worth.
The cars are maintained and operated with the dog driver during 8 hours each week by these unemployed. The running costs, cars and car parts are paid for by the local Government Employment Department.
