herbaceous borders

Herbaceous borders are garden areas filled predominantly with herbaceous plants, which are plants that have non-woody stems and die back to the ground in winter. These borders usually feature a variety of flowering perennials, annuals, and some bulbs, creating vibrant and colorful displays throughout the growing season. Herbaceous borders are typically planted along pathways, edges, or as focal points in gardens, providing structure and aesthetic appeal. They can also support local wildlife, such as pollinators, by offering food and habitat through diverse plant selection.
