Tips
for gardening in the winter with driftwood |
|
Natural
Driftwood Sculptures always look at home when placed
amongst other natural materials within the garden, such
as stone, gravel and slate. During the winter, the choice
of colours is limited in the garden, however using pots
of grasses on simple areas such as patios and paved
areas can create a really dramatic look. |
|
The
spiky shapes of some grasses, such as the ones shown
in the pictures can contrast really well with the smooth
curves and grains of our sculptures. This is the perfect
look to tide your garden over, whilst you are waiting
for your spring bulbs to bloom. |
