Pricked out lots of bronze helichrysums (strawflowers) - all my pink ones succumbed to the December freeze.
Sowed more pink helichrysum - ever optimistic!
So - assuming I’m going to have lots of bronze strawflowers, can you clever, artistic people tell me what would look good with them in bunches please?
I usually do PINK helichrysum, lovely frothy white ammi, blue clary. pink clary and lime green nicotiana.
What’s going to look equally lovely with bronze strawflowers?
Or I’d go with bright yellows like rudbeckia, sunflowers, and some deep reds and other burnt oranges.
