The large mass of pink dianthus greeted me recently. The first photo shows it as part of the garden as a whole–notice the way the green Japanese maple foliage and silvery green nepeta foliage masses balance the spread of the dianthus. Also, the bit of purple foliage of the heuchera echos the red side of the color wheel that the pink dianthus introduces.
The second photo reveals the close-up that I particularly love because of the contrast of texture and color. Hope you’re enjoying your early June garden and landscape.
