Smedley of Containers

This container was inspired by those rare gardeners whom go to such extreme lengths to save a red banana through the winter.  Its' secondary leading actor is  the red dahlia accompanied by 'Centennial' variegated geranium and golden oxalis.

In search of drought-tolerant plants, and I came up with a lythrum, 'Kent Beauty' oregano, and sedum 'Angelina'.  

This crazy coleus was my inspirations, played up with nicotiana, red salvia, and lotus vine. 

                                                                                                 

Must be my sea yearnings in me, but I love the idea of escheverias mimicking a coral reef, tickled by white stones and green marbles. 


I hope you get some inspiration to create some wild container concoctions yourself.


Cheers,
