Perennial Combinations, Plant Combinations, Summer Borders
This jaw-dropping combination features dazzling orange Dwarf Asiatic Lilies, which practically ignite when the sun shines on them, graceful and shimmering lavender-blue Catmint ‘Walker’s Low’ (Nepeta racemosa), as well as stunning Mexican Feather Grass (Nassella tenuissima or Stipa tenuissima), delicately undulating in the summer breeze. Blooming from mid-spring to early summer, this low-care ensemble is easy to replicate.
