My front porch got a Christmas makeover this weekend. I just gathered the wreaths and winter containers that i’ve made last week and put string lights on. We’re lucky to live close to many big forests so getting greens and using them for these types of projects is easy ???
Julros Viv. Victoria och Alunrot Sweet Tea är en fin perennkombination som dessutom är vintergrön. Jag som har en liten trädgård som jag dessutom ser från alla köksfönstret vill att den ska se fin ut alla månader på året. Jag har börjat att plantera fler och fler vintergröna växter.
Den mörkröda färgen gifter ihop den och syns i bladen på alunroten och blommorna på julrosen. Nu hoppas jag att de kommer att trivas!
We had a first frost this weekend. The cold temperatures knocked out most of my fall containers with plants like Coleus and Begonias. The plants went to the compost and I cleaned up the front porch for late fall.
I usually do arrangements with three to four types of plants per container. But this year I thought I would try just one type of plant per container and instead to group the containers. It turned out really nice and clean!
I’ve been looking for a plant to match my newly planted Heucherellas. To get some inspiration I made a visit to the garden. I didn’t have to look long before I found the Helleborus Orientalis ’Viv. Victoria’. What a beautiful perennial! It matched the Heucherella perfectly with the purple and orange/yellow colors.
Helleborus Orientalis ’Viv. Victoria’ is a perennial. It grows 10-15 inches (25-40 cm) tall and preferens half shade.
This variety will bloom sometime between September and April. It will keep blooming for 3-4 months!
