New Spring Pot Arrangement by Jo Thompson: A Vibrant Display of Colours
Vibrant Summer Planter featuring Hemerocallis flowers, designed by Jo Thompson, showcasing a blend of bold orange and pink hues.
Jo Thompson, a renowned designer, has unveiled a captivating new pot arrangement for the spring season. This vibrant display features a carefully curated selection of plants that blend harmoniously to create a spectacle of pinks and coral hues.
The arrangement, currently housed in a stylish zinc bucket, includes the daylilies Hemerocallis 'Chicago Silver', Hemerocallis 'Pink Damask', the shrub rose 'Rosa' 'The Fairy', Geranium 'Dreamland (= 'Bremdream')', and Origanum 'Rosenkuppel'.
Daylilies, with their smudgy tones, complement the rose beautifully. However, it's important to note that these daylilies only last for 24 hours before needing to be replaced. At the end of the season, they should be removed and planted in the garden for continued growth.
Hemerocallis 'Chicago Silver' stands tall with strap-like leaves edged in silver and purple petals. It blooms from June to August, reaching a height and spread of 75cm x 60cm, and is hardy in RHS H6, USDA 4a-10b.
Hemerocallis 'Pink Damask' boasts plentiful flowers of dusky pink with a yellow throat. It shares similar growth characteristics with its silver counterpart.
Geranium 'Dreamland (= 'Bremdream')' is a compact herbaceous perennial with dark-veined, pale-pink flowers. It blooms from May to September, has a size of 40cm x 40cm, and is hardy in RHS H7, USDA 3a-8b.
Origanum 'Rosenkuppel' adds a touch of purple to the arrangement, creating a foil for the pinks to shine against. This plant produces clusters of tiny pink-purple flowers and red-purple bracts. Its leaves are heavily scented and flushed with purple, reaching a size of 60cm x 60cm. It also holds the AGM status and is hardy in RHS H7, USDA 5a-8b.
The arrangement's star, 'Rosa' 'The Fairy', is a short, spreading rose with sprays of small, pink flowers and glossy, green foliage. It blooms continuously from June to September and has the AGM status.
This arrangement thrives in a sunny location, especially when placed against a plain wall or fence. Regular watering is required daily in the morning, and deadheading (removing spent flowers) is necessary to encourage new blooms on 'Rosa' 'The Fairy'.
While Jo Thompson recommends a specific selection of plants for spring arrangements, further details about the recommended plant arrangement she proposed could not be found in the current search results. Nonetheless, this new pot arrangement by Jo Thompson is a breathtaking addition to any spring garden, offering a stunning display of colours and fragrances.
