SPOTLIGHT ON NEW PLANT COMBOS

Explore plant combination ideas on eGardenGo.com

With the quiet season upon us, I've been settling into my winter's work. I put a lot of thought and effort into creating the planting designs featured on eGardenGo.com. I truly enjoy creating new planting schemes, updating and improving upon previously published plant combination ideas, and generally devoting focused attention to the site. I aim to populate the site with vignettes that rely on plants with different shapes, a variety of foliage colors, and a mix of textures to provide interest throughout the gardening year. And I almost always include plenty of flowers to provide beautiful color, delicious scents, and fodder for a variety pollinators.


I strive to create planting schemes that are pretty and practical.


There are hundreds of plant combination ideas on the site that you can browse using a variety of search criteria. For example, you can narrow your search based on your cultural conditions; find landscape solutions to common design dilemmas; and explore based on your aesthetic preferences. Some plant combos have detailed planting plans available to download for a small fee.


I hope the combinations that I've singled out below will provide inspiration as you mull over what to tackle in your garden in the new year.
