A big vase I have at the entrance of my house is a place for seasonal changes. This summer I planted contrasting colours - purple and gold with some pink.
I placed Coleus in the middle; it has purple and green leaves. It is surrounded by violet coloured flowers of Verbena, two varieties of Ipomena - one with pale green and the other with purple leaves - and, Helychrisum with golden foliage and one trailing Perlagonium with pink flowers.
Perlagonium peltatum
Velvety flowers of Verbena.
So pretty. I didn't plant any containers this year; the plants are just too expensive.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful combination of colours! I absolutely love the Pelargonium.
ReplyDeleteLovely planting choices. The Verbena is just gorgeous. Love the Pelargonium too.
ReplyDeletePretty flowers, a splash of colour near the front or back door makes such a difference - so cheerful. Kelli
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful - the verbena is a striking colour.
ReplyDeleteThank you all. Plants in Croatia are not so expensive. I buy plants year after year from the same local grower. Though he has a place on our market, I use to go direct to his nursery where I can choose among many more varieties and species than on the market. As a trustful buyer I get some discount too.
ReplyDeleteThat pelargonium peltatum is strikingly beautiful. It really stands out among the other colors. I like the combinations you chose. Sweet potato vine always looks pretty in containers.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous - I love the color combination!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful combintion!! It's really striking. I love the verbena against the yellow foliage. Very pretty!! :o)
