Garden on the forest edge.

Are they edible or decorative? What do they taste like?
I did not grow. From the Internet.
In the food consumed fresh, boiled or baked, and are preparing jams, jellies and juices. Fruits cloudberries contain minerals, especially hematopoietic number of vitamins (A, C, B1, B3, PP), essential fatty acids and antioxidants and not only. It is a rich source of tocopherols, accelerates regeneration of damaged cells and involved in the vital processes of tissue metabolism. Since cloudberry much potassium, it helps protect against cancer and cardiovascular disease.
 
I like different Spiraea. They give the garden tenderness and softness.

I made that basket from willow. But I badly dried tree branches. These branches have given roots. I removed it and must do again.

This is done simply. It is necessary to draw a circle on the ground of the desired diameter. Then remove the sod inside. Cut the thick branches of willow, dry them and stick in the ground around the perimeter. Long branches are necessary for knobs. They need to connect. Then take a long, thin branches and weave between thick branches.
Earth must be loose. I planted a climbing rose and Impatiens.
I have a lot of saplings to cut and I thought that they might root, too. Can you just cut and dry the framework, then cut and braid new saplings that don't touch the ground?

I think the basis for the basket can be made of other wood. Maybe oak. Or Sorbus aucuparia. A willow plaiting around the base. Then the roots will not grow. :)

You as a living encyclopedia! There is something that you do not know? :D
 
In garden centers often sell plants with monolithic root system. They grow in peat with stimulants. Very often, when planting in the ground roots of these plants not germinate in the soil. The plant may die. Therefore it is necessary to trim the roots a little bit like a cake. This heather. He needs acidic soil.
