Neil Lucas – using grasses and perennials in the modern garden

Spending the day with the Britain’s leading authority on ornamental grasses this workshop explored the use of grasses and perennials in the modern garden to provide stunning designs, easy maintenance and hugely enjoyable green spaces.

This event saw him expand upon his specialism to include the major role that perennials can play in the garden: their vivid colour and vital food for pollinating insects, providing the perfect foil to the tactile nature, movement and lithe beauty of grasses. This day provides practical advice and inspiration as participants came to understand how grasses and perennials can form a near perfect partnership.
