REALLY go green this year!

In the green gardening world, it’s easy to be fashionable this year. Still, here are a few ways to update your outdoor spaces with this lush green color:

· Emerald foliage: Be lavish with green foliage favorites like hostas, ferns, heucheras, canna lilies and begonias. Plant them in mass or fill up containers in monochromatic color schemes.

· Emerald flowers: When it comes to flowers, green is harder to find. Look for Zinnia ‘Envy’, Bells of Ireland (Moluccella laevis), Gladiolius ‘Green Star’, Helleborus ‘Green Gambler’, Alocasia ‘Green Velvet’, Hydrangea ‘Limelight’, and Echinacea purpurea 'Green Jewel’.
