My favorite plant pairing has to be the lovely Pelargonium 'Oldbury Duet' I mentioned getting a cutting of from the Dunn Garden last year. I planted it in a container with the ever popular "Festival Grass" - Cordyline x 'Jurred' and the duet is smashing:
Speaking of duets, here's a lovely one from the hit TV show , GLEE:
So, I've been using this Cordyline x 'Jurred' (Festival Grass™ ) for container work and decided to overwinter them in our conservatory at UW Botanic Gardens. A few days ago, I was noticing an unusual scent filling the air and wouldn't you know, this plant actually decided to flower and it has a interesting fragrance that reminds me of an orchid species I've encountered before!
It's quite a pretty site to see it flower and it's quite elegant used in seasonal plantings.
