Gap fillers in the garden in full sun.

Hi o wise ones I will be moving a large pampass in the front and was wondering what be the best thing to use as a space filler near it. Not growing more than a foot may or may not spread.Flowers or not but must be ever green.

 

Rosemary, Sage or Lavender would be my choice.

 

Cistus purpureus

 

Thanks clueless I have just done some pots with seeds in of sage rosemary and 2 types of lavender did it on sun.

Thanks Stephen I just looked at cistus purpureus love it,will def get some of that if I can find it local.

 

sth with a domed or hummock shape (says the garden design book:-)

the pampas grass is a fan shape and a very strong focal point so you need sth inconspicuous next to it, therefore lavender and cistus are fine, sage depends on the type, rosemary will get a bit leggy unless you keep cutting it to avoid that
make sure, though, you have a dome which is not to small in comparison to the huge pampas grass (proportions)

 

Thank you loveweeds for your advice

 

kels, Cistus is usually sold in most garden centres.. try Homebase/B&Q, they both had it in last time I checked.

 

Thanks..I will be looking for some plants this weekend.
