What are the best-known and most popular weaving plants?
In modern landscape architecture, the weaving plant has become indispensable for creating a natural 'look'. The most iconic choice is probably Verbena bonariensis, with its tall, transparent stems that weave through everything. Astrantia and Geranium are also very popular weaving plants due to their lush growth habit. For a finer structure, various types of ornamental grasses are often chosen, such as Mexican feathergrass. These weaving plants are popular because they do not dominate, but rather accentuate and connect the other plants in the border.
The benefits of weaving plants?
The greatest benefit of weaving plants is their connecting power. They act as the 'glue' of your border, transforming a collection of loose plants into a beautiful, cohesive landscape. Because a ground cover plant often has an open and airy structure, it does not block the view of other plants. Additionally, many ground cover plants are excellent self-seeders; they find their own way through the garden and fill gaps where weeds would otherwise have a chance to take hold. This not only makes your garden more beautiful and fuller, but in the long run also more low-maintenance and more attractive to bees and butterflies.
What to look for when buying ground cover plants?
When selecting the right ground cover plant for your garden, there are a few things to keep in mind:
What types of ground cover plants are there?
There are different categories of ground cover plants, varying in height and texture. You have the 'tall weavers' such as Verbena and Gaura, which stand out above the rest. In addition, there are the 'low weavers' such as Alchemilla mollis, which nestles beautifully over the edge of a path or between lower perennials. Ornamental grasses are also often classified as ground cover plants because their fine foliage blends easily with flowering plants. For every garden style, from sleek modern to a wild prairie garden, there is a suitable weaving plant to be found that provides the desired natural flow.
How and where do I place my weaving plants?
The beauty of a weaving plant is that you can place it in between almost anything. The best spot is in the gaps between your larger structural plants or 'eye-catchers'. Do not plant them in tight groups, but rather scatter them here and there throughout the border for the most natural effect. Most weaving plants prefer a sunny to semi-shady spot and well-draining soil. When planting, you do not need to dig huge holes; because they often adapt easily, their roots quickly find their way between the existing vegetation. Give them a good start with some organic fertilizer after planting.
How do I care for my weaving plants?
Caring for a weaving plant is usually very simple. Because many of these plants self-seed, it is a matter of deciding which seedlings to keep and which to remove if they pop up in an inconvenient spot. Only cut back spent stems of your weaving plants in the autumn, so that you can still enjoy the silhouette in the winter and the seeds are preserved for the birds. In the spring, you can tidy up the plants and add some fertilizer if necessary. Because weaving plants are often strong, healthy varieties, they rarely suffer from diseases or pests, provided they are in the right place.

Frequently asked questions about weaving plants
Are weaving plants the same as ground covers?
No, although some low weaving plants cover the ground well, their primary purpose is different. A ground cover is intended to cover the ground, whereas a weaving plant is meant to grow through other plants and visually connect different elements in the border.
Won't my garden become too messy with weaving plants?
That is a matter of taste, but precisely because a weaving plant fills gaps, a border often looks more complete. If you find it getting too busy, you can simply remove some seedlings or cut the plants back a little further after flowering to keep the shape tighter.
Which weaving plants are good for butterflies and bees?
Virtually every weaving plant is a magnet for pollinators! Verbena bonariensis, Astrantia, and Gaura, in particular, are known for their high attraction to bees and butterflies. By weaving these plants into your garden, you create a richly laid table for beneficial insects.
Can weaving plants also be used in a small garden?
Certainly! Especially in a small garden, weaving plants create depth and a sense of space. Because you can see through the plants (transparency), the garden appears larger than when using massive, dense shrubs. Choose the more compact varieties of weaving plants for the best effect.
