I did not want to wait for student activity and then find that no-one was around and nothing had been done in the garden, especially at it is the ideal time of year for re-planting and re-planning a garden, what I am trying to say is that I have been getting on with things on my own.
The second bed runs all the way down the left hand side of garden (see plan, kindly drawn up by Aurore) and has the wall behind it. The bed itself is not very deep, so I decided on planting two plants deep. The higher plants obviously behind, as well as some climbers and smaller plants near the front.
Plants include Trachelospermum jasminoides, commonly known as star Jasmin and a blue clematis as climbers along the wall. Origanum vulgare ssp aureum or Golden oregano, Allium Schoenoprasum or chives, Centranthus ruber or red valerien, Mentha citrata or Bergamot mint, Tanacetum balsamita commonly known as Costmary, bible herb, Balsam herb or mint geranium, Chelidonium majus or Greater Celandine and others. In between planting there will be room this year as the plants develop for flowering annuals such as Calendula officinalis or marigold, Centaurea cyanus or Cornflower, echinaceas etc. I will take photos as the bed develops and grows so you can see the progress.
