The plant combination in this border caught my eye when scrolling through older photos. I can’t help but thinking that it showcases the perfect layering of purple flowering plants. I love the darker purple salvia in the foreground, the globular purple alliums in the center and the airy and wispy light purple verbena bonariensis in the background. I feel very tempted to repeat this plant combo in my own garden, but, since I can’t grow alliums, to substitute them with lavender or purple flowering roses. What do you think? Does this planting scheme appeal to you as well? Have you also gotten inspiration for plant combinations from other gardens? And if so, what combinations have you fallen in love with? Please do share so that we all can inspire each other. After all it is spring! Wishing everyone a peaceful Sunday, with maybe a bit of gardening scattered in, if your climate allows! P.S. My photo was taken at Regent’s Park in London many years ago. . . . #plantcombinations #plantcombination #salvia #salvias #allium #alliums #verbenabonariensis #border #floweringborder #purple #purpleplants #purplefloweringplants #regentspark #london #englishborder #englishborders #gardening #publicparks #garden #gardens #organicgardendreams (at Regent's Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvZM-hSFYHI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ziyepbxy3yil
