Container Ship
Any port in a storm or any container in a garden!
If you have shipped a load of plants into your garden recently you may want a new vessel to hold them in. It can be a Titanic struggle to make your car-go to the local nursery but if you let a Fittonia Pink Star board your car until you get back to the car port you will stop me dredging up any more terrible puns.
Maritime Plants
- A Hosta named Titanic – goes well with Iceberg roses or Lettuce – just a tip.
- Sea Holly useful for Christmas at sea and Docks useful all the time if the Captain is nettled
- A Rose named Seagull a white rambler seems appropriate, whilst others are called Sea Foam, Sea Pearl, Seashell and Seaspray even sea-ling Wax.
- Dragon boat flower ‘Ixora’
- The earliest boat plant hybrid I could find was the ‘Pink’Â or Dianthus ‘Joan of Arc’.
One thought on “Container Ship”
In Redruth, Cornwall the council planted up loads of rowing boats with flowers all around the town. Was very attractive! Val
