2022 Trial Garden Report

4. Try out different combinations of colors & textures using new varieties. I browse our new variety area for colors and textures that could complement varieties or combos and begin to build combos for next season this way. If you order a few trays of new varieties, you can do the same with other items and combos on display. For example, look how an Echinacea Panama Red complements this Lantata Gem Citrine. >>>

And look at how beautiful Lobelia Rift + Glamouphage Pink look together. <<< >>> An eye-catching new variety for 2022 is the Dahlia Dalaya Apricot Red + Yellow Eye.

I broke off a bloom and tried it in several existing combos. It could add complementary color and large blooms to our window box 14, and it could provide contrasting color to the darker tones of window box 15. <<<

<<< It could also make for a beautiful combo when paired with Cuphea Cherrybells and Echinacea Panama Red.
