Laying out the plants
I did a detailed planting plan, which I mostly stuck to.
The plants are in drifts and groups of up to 20 individuals, with the little bluestem grasses filling in between them.
I chose plants that have a variety of blooming times, so there is always interest throughout the growing season.
I used spray paint to make out where the plants should be placed.
