That's the word I was looking for "screaming". These celosia do just that! I'm not even going to mention the neon yellow to my DH Cheryl. I'm not a plant snob and I'm sure some of my choices would make a plant snob cringe, but I just can't take the intense colours of these celosia.
Don, you're not odd, it's just what you happen to like! I like teasing DH about this and I can understand why he's not into pink & lavender hues.
Ginny, you're right about men seeming to like bolder plants. DH likes my brug and he liked the cannas at Ann's house. First thing he asked when we left Ann's was the name of those tall plants. Thankfully, I like those and would gladly get some for him for next year. I swear I'm going to lure him into the gardening world yet,lol.
Okay, this takes us to the Rock Gardens at RBG, where colour abounded. I noticed there were many annuals here as well to add to the late season colours. Most visitors seemed to follow an obvious path into the garden as their starting point but I decided we would skirt the outside and head up the hill to work our way down. This plan suited DH well since the first big planting that greeted us was........
He said, "oh look, more!" As if I could've missed it
