Plant pineapple sage
and give your
eyes and nose a treat - its leaves are
scented just like the fruit and it has
vividly coloured flower spikes.
3. Add a layer
of engaging texture to
your sensory garden with the handsome
grey-green foliage of sage.

There’s nothing like the sound
of
running water to inject calm into your
garden. This fountain feeds a little
stream, or rill, that flows into a pond -
a great spot for kids to splash about.
5. For interesting foliage
and rich
fragrance, add prostrate rosemary to
your planting scheme. And you’ll have
it on hand for your next lamb roast!
6. Strawberry plants
make delightful
and delicious mounding groundcovers.
7. Include comfortable seating
so you
can enjoy the fruits of your labour.

Be inspired by garden sculpture
and
add a giant rake for a bit of fun. A 100mm
treated pine slab post forms the handle,
the frame of the head is made from 90 x
45mm treated pine, and 40 x 40mm treated
pine forms the tines. Everything is held
together with
100
mm countersunk screws.
