This year there seems to be a trend towards using true blues in every shade and hue. We are often asked what is around in what season…so here goes…

SPRING
Grape hyacinths, (mascari) hyacinths, gentians, blue bee delphinium (royal blue),
thistles (Eryngium), hydrangeas.

BLENDING INTO SUMMER
Ceonothus, bluebells, forget-me-nots, campanulas, lacecap hydrangeas, agapanthus, delphinium,

BLENDING INTO MIDSUMMER
cornflowers, scabious, lavender, sloeberries.

BLENDING INTO AUTUMN
lauristinus berries, eucalyptus (all year).

BLENDING INTO WINTER
lichen moss (grey), blue pine (grey).

I'm sure there are many more around but hopefully this'll get you started.

The above photo shows mascari and gentians edged with baby blue feathers.
