Midsummer at Bellefield
The Pink Border, in the northeastern corner, uses robust peonies,
hibiscus, foxgloves, phlox, poppies
and an array of other romantic perennials, blooming in pastel tones to the
deepest rose reds.
In summertime, Astilbe chinensis var.
davidii and Lilium speciciosum (stargazer
lily) take command of this border.
In the Pink Border
In the Mauve/Purple Border
In the northwestern quadrant, highlights of The Mauve/Purple Border
include subtle and vibrant iris varieties, phlox, beebalm, verbena, early crocus and a host of late-blooming asters.
In midsummer, Limonium latifolium (sea
lavender) and Platycodon grandiflorus
(balloon flower) star in this border.
Stars of The White Border, in the southeastern
sector, include delicate columbines, cosmos, fragrant
lillies and iris, tulips and daffodils throughout the
spring. Later glories include Japanese anemone and
asters, supported by a host of delicate yet persistent
annuals all season long.
In midsummer, graceful snakeroot, Actaea
racemosa, and bold Phlox paniculata ‘Midsummer
White’ make a pristine pairing.
In the White Border
In the Blush/Cream/Grey Border
The Blush/Cream/Grey Border, completing the
southwestern garden sector, displays the dramatic
bear’s breeches, plume poppy, tall meadow rue,
and goat’s beard, supported by a cast of
silver toned beauties—lamb’s ear,
santolina and artemisia.
In summertime, regal Lilium brownii and
blushing Acanthus hungaricus (bear’s
breeches) distinguish this remarkable border.
