Burnt orange Osteos and Pennisetum setaceum 'Rubrum', with a few little Agastache 'Orange Sprite' out of shot.

Thanks, K. It was interesting at the GC. A lady was asking an assistant for help as she wanted to plant up some containers, and was a novice gardener. The choices she'd been given were awful - a non-flowering sedum, an aubrieta, and a couple of other tiny plants. :-( Can you imagine how disappointed she'd be with her containers?
She looked in my trolley and after a discussion, she went scuttling off to find the same plants as I had! I was quite chuffed. :-D)
I think I should get paid commission, don't you?

No, I wasn't, but if you don't fancy it... ;)

When have I got time to write a book, K?

Lol...ok, fair point! :))

;-) There are loads of books out there on container gardening, anyway.

Thanks! It's still just about going on - the Osteos have more buds.

Love the way the pennisetum picks up on the colour in the rim of the pot too. Lovely Barbara.....your pot recipes go from strength to strength!
