Contrast shapes.

Pic My French Country Home. What is better than contrasting foxgloves with mophead hydrangeas? Several Italian cypress are going in a garden today. The gravel courtyard is round and the nearby crape myrtles arc in silhouette.

Hosta, fern & hellebore are my shade trinity and contrast to extreme. Tara's Trinity of the Southern Garden: Azalea, Camellia, Hydrangea. Contrast AND keeps something in bloom every day of the year in your garden.

Great example to a great approach - one that always will work. Nothing like untrained people teaching people to do the opposite, then wonder why few embrace xeriscape, etc.
So many lessons here - taking notes.
A wonderful study in contrasts.

Before reading I thought the post would be titled "lollipop land". Love the example of contrast you chose, and look forward to seeing your finished installation.
