Tetbury in Bloom

The  Fire Station Bed Summer 2008

 

The Fire Station Bed Project:

In Summer 2006 the bed outside the Fire Station received a welcomed makeover. An appropriate colour scheme of red, yellow, orange and white was chosen using perennials and shrubs including gaillardia, heuchera, crocosmia and the aptly named kniphofia - ‘Tetbury Torch’. These were planted together with a few annuals such as red begonias and geraniums, yellow antirrhinums and white marguerites.

 

The original bed was weeded, dug over and widened before putting in the new plants

 

 

The newly finished bed matching very nicely with the fire engine!!

 

 

                   

 

Summer 2007, one year on and the bed has filled out quite nicely

 

In Autumn 2007 we added some colour co-ordinated tulip and daffodil bulbs

to brighten the bed in Spring

 

 

In Summer 2008 the bed is still doing well
