Celia:
Me too! Especially with sun behind them giving that "outlined" look...this
year I also planted some i. pallida variegata...white with the
green...striking! Now maybe someone can help me out here...one catalog
called them i. pallida aureo vareigata as yellow-white and green, and i.
pallida albo variegata as brighter white and green...then another place called
them something else. ..zebra! So is the zebra the white and green or yellow
and green? Anyway...my husband refers to our backyard as Variegata
Land...love variegation in hostas, found one in a vinca...even saw Park Seed
carry a Morning Glory with a variegated leaf!
One more question...know of any iris with particularly dark/purplish foliage?
I have Draculas Shadow and was surprised to see it have some purplish shading
towards base!
