How to create a foliage border – for year-round texture and interest

Create a foliage border for an eye catching yard.

Learning how to create a foliage border with plants famed for their leaves, not just their blooms, is super rewarding, as it offers an alternative way of bringing year-round colour and interest to your backyard ideas.

Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that a foliage border will only involve one shade of green. As we know, there are so many shades of green to choose from, including neon lime, which is set to be one of the hottest 2024 plant color trends. Use your imagination and spice up a verdant palette with variegated plants and dramatic varieties that offer flashes of purple, red and bronze, too.
