Touch of bronze

Bronze and chartreuse foliage mingle in a 16-inch rose-blushed celadon pot.

The plants:

Pieris  'Forest Flame': Fiery red new leaves fade to pink, then turn dark green when mature. This shrub prefers part-shade and can reach 10 feet tall.

Dryopteris erythrosora: The hardy wood fern’s feathery new growth blends copper, pink, and gold tones that turn rust-colored in fall. It grows 2 feet tall.

'Little John' azalea: Bronzy leaves make this azalea, which can reach 6 feet tall, a choice focal point.
