One of the best thing of RHS Shows is the opportunity to see and questioning about new plants and cultivars, or maybe just discover again a forgotten species.
Today I want to share with you some of the plants that drawn my attention and that will look fab in a whenever a touch of white is required! :D
{Agapanthus 'Tinkerbell' - a blue-flowered Agapanthus, but with unusual cream-variegated leaves, I find it very elegant, as the similar form named 'Silver Moon' - Pic source: www.smgrowers.com} |
{ Acer Palmatum 'Oridono-nishiki' - This unusual Acer, shows variegated leaves with a hint of pink that recall me one other of my favourite plants: Actinidia kolomikta - Pic source: http://www.pudelko.com.pl } |
{Eryngium planum 'Jade Frost' - The Eryngium is a popular star of these last summers, and it is also well appreciated by our buzzing little friends, but it is not common to find one with a white-creamish rim like this! - Pic source: www.plantipp.eu} |
{ Lunaria annua 'Variegata' - I love the fruits of this plant! Even more now that I can have them on a variegated-leaves plant! :D - Pic source}

I also felt in love with:
And last but not least, Thulbaghia violacea 'Silver Lace', that increased my love for Thulbaghias and that I can already see in my dream garden, in company of some Agapanthus 'Silver Moon'....
Ok, that day is a bit far away but..hey! Let me dream!!! :D
And what about you? Were there some plants that captured your heart at Hampton Court Flower Show?
- Fuchsia 'Roualeyns White Gold', a 2012 novelty from Roualeyns nursery;
- Myrtus communis tarentina 'Variegata', a fragrant and decorative bush whose scent will project you in a Mediterranean paradise;
- Ornithogalum magnum, a very big Ornithogalum, as the name suggest!
- Phalaris arundinacea 'Feesy', a very good-looking and ornamental grass;
- Rhodohypoxis baurii, a little bulbous that I am sure will surprise you;
And last but not least, Thulbaghia violacea 'Silver Lace', that increased my love for Thulbaghias and that I can already see in my dream garden, in company of some Agapanthus 'Silver Moon'....
