Exterior Color Trinity

If asked, "What color trinity did you choose for your garden?", what is your answer?
.
Is your first thought to list the colors, or wonder what type of crazy question is this?
.
For centuries choosing a Color Trinity for the garden has been a layer of garden design.

Very nice.

Knowing green/brown/white is the classic garden color trinity of-the-ages never stops me from seeing delicious color trinities from myriad resources.

Little Georgia Cafe in East London, between Hackney City Farms & Broadway Market walking north from Hackney Road on Goldsmiths Row. The most interesting, beautiful family and woman proprietor here as well.:

Ah - we've been considering residing our old farmhouse in the woods, a green - most likely a Hardie green.

Anyway - what would you do for plantings? I've got tons of green and brown in the wooded areas. White azaleas, oakleaf hydrangeas, gardenias? I'm the one w/a diagnoses of macular degeneration and I think we've discussed a white garden.

Not exactly sure where I would bring in the charcoal/black?

Anyway - I'm always thrilled when I get an email notification that you've published a new post!
