Green is the colour of spring!

Fresh and lively bright greens are continuing their popularity with gardeners, a trend that began a couple of years ago. At last years Canada Blooms, green, especially lime green, was the basis for many arrangements, often punched up with shades of purple. The effect was stunning!

Here are a few recommended plants to consider if you're looking for a shot of spring green, all season long.

Lime Rickey Heuchera

Lemon Lime Hosta

Golden Plumrose Lady Fern

Limelight Hydrangea

Limelight Hydrangea, late summer/fall. Two shades in one!

Love that hydrangea! The others are too limey for me....and I feel like they have a vitamin deficiency!

Oooh, that hydrangea certainly is lovely!

I might try the greens and purples this year...got some new pots I;m excited about using.

A vitamin deficiency, Gina?? They look a little like DIS Buds!

The hydrangea is gorgeous, and you see quite a few floral arrangements with their green blooms. I think it gives them a sophisticated look.

I love the hyndrangea! Wish I could get one to bloom.
The Hosta looks like it needs some miracle grow to me. Not one for limey green plants... Buds yes I like green green with purple looks lively and fun

I noticed the orchid show at the NY botanical garden did yellow and purple orchids, now that looked hot
