Penstemon in front garden border


Penstemon in front garden border

Penstemon(Rubicundus) in my front garden border alongside one of my treasured toadstalls. These were made from Oak(top) and hazel(stems) from Norsey wood in Billericay. I love these as they are much taller than many I've seen, and a bit different. Also in shot (background) Dahlia kelvins Floodlight and Polemonium(Jacobs Ladder at front.

They are a nice colour Preeti but they were put in this border by mistake as I used to try and keep this side of the garden predominantly Yellow, blue and white. I reckon they had the wrong label on them when I bought them!

I stick to those colour combinations in floral arrangements,but I think in nature there are no strict rules..coz they are beautiful just as they are.
