The ornamental onions are still carrying a soft, continuous pale-pink edge in late July, holding the low layer below Limelight Prime.
Season notes
The strap foliage remains green and orderly while the flower globes connect the cool hydrangea layer to the bright orange milkweed in front.
The curved June buds have opened into dozens of small pale-pink globes, creating a soft but continuous foreground below Limelight Prime.
Season notes
The strap foliage is still dense and green, while flowers range from newly opening to softly faded. Together they make the strongest low layer in the midsummer bed.
The ornamental onion is full of pale curved scapes and swollen buds, with the first hint of purple starting to show.
Season notes
This captures the plant just before the bloom moment: dense strap foliage below, many nodding buds above, and one lower bud already beginning to reveal color.
