Felt & Tails Winter Textures

Madagascan Felt Plant, Giant Landscape Bromeliads with Foxtail Asparagus for wintery textures

Foliage colours and Textural contrasts …bring year round interest, especially when cold winter air falls on plants at this time of year making their winter colours show. Alcantarea odorata brings a chalky bloom over its strap leafed rosette, connecting with the sage green living sculpture of Madagascan Felt Plant (Kalanchoe beharensis). Inter-spaces of Foxtail Asparagus (Asparagus meyerii) are filled with bristly lime green tails for sense of arrival at ‘Sea-Changer’s’ garden gate. Flowers may come and go but for  high focus spots as walk-bys in your garden, its best to rely on plants like these that give generously all year sans flowers.. !

    1. Thanks Akshay, yes its good to highlight winter textural contrasts in the garden as they provide year round interest without having to rely entirely on seasonal flowering interest. Thanks for sending and sharing !! Cheers, Peter
