Michaelmas daisies seem to blend so well with the grasses ~ wish I could put plants together like this!
This is in John Massey's Garden ~ Kingswinford.

Whenever I am at a loss for garden ideas I turn to this pic. It's simple, it's well kept, but looks completely at home, and it has the look of freedom!
