Plant combinations to thrive in drought-prone, windy or coastal aspects, filter pollution, stabilise slopes, reduce noise and more
Good planting choices are not just about finding a group of plants that look good in your garden. The choices we make can also help perform valuable functions such as helping to reduce noise and pollution levels, stabilise slopes, or simply cope with potentially challenging locations such as coastal aspects or drought-prone gardens. These plant combinations demonstrate how plants can be of great functional value as well as looking great.
