How many box plants does it take to make a parterre?
This is design of the simple parterre we are planning for the middle of the back lawn. It will have low box hedges around the edge. But how many do we need?
1 square = 0.5 m
Total perimeter = 40 m
Number of plants per m = 5
Number of plants needed = 40 x 5 = 200
That's a lot!
I knew that one day my maths teaching experience would come in useful!
This is just soooo you!! Bet it looks wonderful
