Plant combinations that bring sensory experiences through colour, scent, touch and taste

Good planting choices can look great, but of course, sight is not the only sense that plants can help stimulate. Plants can offer fragrance and taste too, and can be tactile, helping us to experience plants and gardens in a truly sensory way. These planting combinations aim to provide inspiration for sensory garden experiences.
