All About Roses
Air & Grace
Sumptuous pale-toned roses define a simple scheme shot through with the lime-green flowers of Alchemilla mollis and airy spires of sky-blue Nepeta racemosa ‘Walkers Low’
White grabs the attention: when we work with this, we get the best results. A clever way of using white is to keep it high: white height, in fact. Here at ‘The Garland’ start off cream-blush, a neat link to the pink old roses in the borders. As they get paler, the flowers shift their linking power to the sky: all is pale above, with the dark shadows of yew spinning out in perspective lines on either side.
