Prairie planting is big news right now, with the signature look comprising grasses and flowering perennials planted in a loose, airy mix. Although this unstructured style is often associated with expansive areas of grasslands, the naturalistic feel can also be achieved in smaller yards.
The trick to getting the look right in your own backyard is to choose plenty of each variety of flower or grass, and repeat plant them in a free-flowing style that celebrates form, structure and texture.
