Picture Perfect Perennial Here's a picture perfect perennial. Date: 2002-06-27 Photo by: John Valleau (http://www.perennials.com) Location/Owner: Vancouver, BC (http://www.city.vancouver.bc.ca/parks/parks&gardens/vandusen/default.shtml) About the photo: VanDusen Botanical Garden - Vancouver, BC (October/1996) A charming autumn vignette, part of the large perennial border at this lovely public garden. Although the combination of ferny silver Powis Castle Artemisia and Autumn Joy Stonecrop is nice enough, I think it's the sword-like leaves of Variegated Sweet Flag that brings this scene to life. Valerie Finnis Artemisia echoes with more silver in the bottom left corner.
