Garden Edits on a Theme

Hostas multiply.  The front garden was too full of plants so had some editing and a 'truck load' went away last week. They took a stylish trip to their new home in Grimsby.

On to Kale - the magic vegetable in the second picture.  This one is at the Celtic Garden in Vinemount - a garden of natural willow sculptures and hostas. Did you know that kale is called 'the new beef'.

There's a variety of Kale named Black Magic - sounds like  something for my front garden as its theme is Magic and Mystery.  The theme got started with:

- Arisaema (tropical Jack in the Pulpits) - both Green Godess and Corbra (that's the stinky one)

- my version of a Fairy Garden - toad and mushrooms sculptures.

- Chocolate-coloured plants contrasting with Chartreuse

Any ideas you have for creating magic and mystery - send them along!
