Elegant country garden Grace Design Associates

The tall stalks with the elongated conical blooms are Actea racemosa (formerly known as Cimicifuga racemosa - much more fun toe say!) with many common names such as: black cohosh, black bugbane, black snakeroot and fairy candle. There is some spent goat's beard to the right still looking pretty nice and Virginia Creeper on the wall.

Location: Cohasset, MA, United States This elegant property has gorgeous views of the harbor, with sweeping stone walls that create a terraced effect. Since the house was a warm beige, I felt a bold red would really bring it to life, mixed with burgundy foliage and big, dramatic grasses. Hay Scented Fern, Solomon's Seal and Hellebore create a dense, naturalistic ground cover along this slope at the bottom on a ledge cliff.
