Today ’s GPOD is from Mindy Arbo of theCotton - Arbo retumin Winchester , Massachusetts . Mindy says : “ This striking combining ofHosta‘Sum and Substance ’ andChelone‘Hot Lips ’ comes from the extraordinary Connecticut garden of Monique and Les Anthony . The planting work in many ways . The color palette of magenta , amber , and deep green is compatible , and the vignette is visually kinetic from the pocket-sized finely articulated chelone heyday and foliage mixed with the turgid wide hosta parting . This is also a in particular long - lasting combo in the garden ; the hosta has presence from June through October and the genus Chelone blooms in late August and September . ”Thanks , Mindy , for sharing this photo with us !
