Garden Plans > 2015: Frost Pocket Plan

About this Garden Plan

Top part of the garden is elevated and has more natural light and so there is a patio, tomatoes and tender Italian Herbs, an arbour with grape vines and an arch with golden hops. The bottom part of the garden is parially shaded and is in a frost pocket. The ground is slightly sloped and so that is planted with frost tolerant plants using the frost tolerant filter on the garden planner.Note the Brassicas are covered for maximum protection from cabbage white butterflies and are planted by garlic chives that will further confuse the pests.
