A pot of pink and green striped tulips makes a good accent. It was one of those last minute purchases this past fall.
Creating a focal point is as easy as using an old strawberry jar planted with hens & chicks and tops with a planted of more succulents.
Blue (veronica "speedwell") and white (candytuft) are the unifying colors in the spring garden along with the bright spring green of new growth.
The old portable farrier's stand (the bellows rotted out long ago and the wood parts fell off) but the dull patina of the rusted metal is a great contrast with the colors green, white and hot coral. It makes a perfect plant stand and it's one of my favorite finds from the metal recyclers! Got it for $25! We took a load of metal to Schnitzer Steel and got a whopping $25. I saw this stand and had to have it. As Jack said, "There goes the profits!"
