A flashback to late May for my final 'A Week Of Flowers' post to one of my favourite combinations of the year. It features allium 'Purple Sensation', geum 'Totally Tangerine' and the deep wine red flowers of astrantia 'Gill Richardson'. The latter had an even more impressive second show of flowers later in the year.
A BIG thanks to Cathy over at 'Words and Herbs', for once again inviting us to share our floral highlights at this time of year. As always it's been a most pleasant experience looking back at what has caught my eye during the last twelve months, as well as seeing what blogging friends have captured.
Beautiful color combination, Anna! The allium is magnificent.
ReplyDeleteI love that combination too Anna - purple and orange definitely compliment each other and your allium is very impressive! I wonder where I first saw Geum Totally Tangerine… was it on your blog? (Or maybe it was on 'Dig with Dorris' ?) In any case I was immediately in love with that Geum when I saw it. As you say, seeing what everyone else grows is always fun and over the past few days I have added a couple of plants to my list of things to consider in future plantings. Thank you for joining in - you have helped blow those winter blues away!
ReplyDeleteI love the allium and the contrast! orange is underrated, I think. Amelia
