Green is beautiful!
Posted on 8 Jul, 2008 2 comments
Gardens do not have to be full of colour. Sometimes a green area can provide a relaxing and restful alternative.Interesting leaf shapes and structural plants in varying shades of green provide a backdrop for a focal point or ‘vista.’ Here the rusty classical urn is surrounded by exotic foliage.
Shade loving plants in shades of green compliment the tree fern.
The pattern and texture is provided by the leaves from a collection of Hostas.
