Juniperus squamata ‘Chinese Silver’ and Erica carnea ‘Springwood White’ spotted at Wakehurst Place, Sussex, earlier this month. Who said the old conifer-and-heather combo was boring?

Betula utilis, Ophiopogon planiscapus ‘Nigrescens’, and Galanthus nivalis. A little island at Wakehurst Place earlier this month: perhaps the black-and-white snowdrops-and-lilyturf thing is becoming a tad clichéd nowadays but I don’t care. This looked fabulous.

Ophiopogon planiscapus ‘Nigrescens’, Hakonechloa macra ‘Aureola’ and Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Silver Magic’, spotted at Wisley on a frosty day.
(By way of explanation: We’ve been set an assignment for the Plant Design course I’m doing at Capel Manor to compile lots of plant combinations that we particularly like, so since it’s going to take me all year to do, I thought I’d share them as I go along.)
