Planting the Dutch Wave
The way to get the Dutch Wave effect is to use more plants in a way that gets the plants to look natural. easier said than done.
Three Principles for the Dutch Wave
The Dutch Wave has 3 major parts to it: use only perennials, use lots and lots of them and do it in a way that feels like nature.
Origins of the Dutch Wave
The Dutch Wave is a new movement in gardening to use perennials and grasses in ways that show naturalistic patterns and other characteristics. Two men have pioneered the movement. the first was Karl Foerster and the second Piet Oudolf.
