hmmm, well I have to say I am struck dumb - with horror. Horses for courses and all that but really? You like that (ahem) combination?

It's not yours (or anyone's on here), is it?

RE: I like this combination

"attractive" ... but I am not feeling it. but definitely better than some combos, worse than others. E for effort!

'Wow' covers it diplomatically.

For a corporation, this cheers up the workers, no?

I've heard it said that if you would not wear a given color combo, don't plant it, either. Just sayin'

RE: I like this combination

no.. its ... its.. well??? .. colorfully loud ... lol ...

BUT!!! ..... it looks like a ridiculous tiny.. half round spot of earth.. in a parking lot ... next to the gatekeepers hut ..

any you know.. on that basis .. its brilliant ..

as well as a maintenance nightmare .. lol ...

come on guys.. it would not be aesthetically pleasing in a meditative garden.. but crikey.. as far as i am concerned.. it works.. where it is.. with the 15 second attention span of the person spinning the wheels of the car to get the heck away from work .. lol ... it would make me happy.. as i covered it in a dusting of shredded rubber from my tires .. lol ...

given the defined space.. what would you have done with it?????

juju .. i have been following your various pics/posts ..... and i can appreciate your quest to entertain us.. so thank you ....

It would be interesting to ask 100 (or whatever sample size) non-gardeners whether they liked it; even after more than 15 seconds.

I'd suspect many would.
If so, it's a good job and nothing to demean.

I'm not that sympathetic to Gertrude-Jekyll-magenta-like pronouncements.

Oh heck. Replace the snaps with some 12 foot sunflowers. That would be study in contrasts.

Oh c'mon -- it certainly is very cheerful! Not to mention well maintained. Not what I would plant in my personal space, but I certainly can enjoy the color explosion for what it is :0)

Very colorful but not my cup of tea, color combo grates for me.
