That would look good with something lime colored too such as a hosta or variegated lirope. I like it with the silver too. I bet you spend your paycheck at work! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795387901232045644.post-62180247152622862452008-07-07T20:47:00.000-05:002008-07-07T20:47:00.000-05:00Eve,I've never put purple heart and dusty miller t...Eve,<BR/><BR/>I've never put purple heart and dusty miller together but that would be pretty and low maintenance as well. That silvery plant is a Centaurea. I don't remember the species name(sorry).<BR/><BR/>Beckie,<BR/><BR/>I am very fortunate to work in a pretty place. Unfortunately, my paycheck suffers severely. I don't care for that "Rose of Sharon" either but I really do love coleus. I put that in lots of mixed containers.Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06270611634380137009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795387901232045644.post-24818171921126720592008-07-07T19:33:00.001-05:002008-07-07T19:33:00.001-05:00Susie, I was just on your last post when this one ...Susie, I was just on your last post when this one popped up. Such a pretty container. It looks so full and colorful. Also those hibiscus are wonderful. I am not a big fan of the regular kinds. I guess they remind me of 'rose of sharon' and I really don't like those. But these 2 types are beautiful. I must find out more about them. Coleus is makig a come back in my garden. I sort of got tired of it a few years ago, but the ones now are so diverse and stunning. What a pretty place to work.beckiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06400859161321357279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795387901232045644.post-73996387289506646402008-07-07T19:33:00.000-05:002008-07-07T19:33:00.000-05:00I love purple and silvers together.
