New Wave Plantings in Planting Design

New Wave Movement

Plants for your garden

New Wave planting was pioneered by the Dutch garden designer Piet Oudolf. He places emphasis on the natural harmony of plants, as well as their form and texture.  This is a planting trend about plants that perform, that do not require staking and that provide a long season of interest.  The main plants in this palette are perennials and grasses, but there is a backbone of shrubs too.
