PLANT COMBINATIONS TWO

Another plant combination which I have been enjoying in my garden over the past couple of years is with Statice and Sedum. This photo was taken about a week or so ago, the Sedum is now just starting to turn a blushed shade of pink.



I have plans to grow more Statice from seed next year. It really does look great in both borders and on sloping banks.

Statice is something I have had in my garden before. It was the loviest purple colour.
Hope you go well growing it from seed.

A very pretty combination, Louise. I like the soft colour of the statice.

Very pretty. It puts me in mind of pulmonaria because of the dotted effect on the leaves.
Is that sedum in behind? It's one of my favourites as it endures through all sorts of weather.

Ooooh I do love these two plants myself!! Congratulations on your award! Oh and I popped along to your "home" blog - didn't even know you had one that's how dense I can be sometimes hehe - but just had to say that I too loved the Hairy Bakers :o) Sorry for the combined comments on one post - bit short of time today!
