Garden trend-setters highlight 'faded petal' as the latest must-have color for all gardens, regardless of the existing color scheme.
The "Faded Petal" tulip, a unique bloom that resembles a peony in full flower, has become a popular choice for garden enthusiasts. This dusky, whisper-soft ballet slipper pink flower is not just suitable for pots, containers, beds, and borders, but is also a favourite in cottage gardens.
The resurgence of the Faded Petal trend can be attributed to Gen Z's interest in the Nancy Meyers aesthetic. This delicate, understated colour is not a pastel and is a grown-up version of baby pink, making it a perfect addition to any garden.
One standout plant that embodies the Faded Petal trend is Rosa 'New Dawn', a shrub rose that flowers on repeat all summer and right through Christmas, giving off a remarkable perfume. Another must-grow for winter interest is Hellebores in a dusky, antiqued rose shade.
The Faded Petal colour spectrum is not limited to just a few plants. Dusty miller, lavender, pale pink peonies, white hydrangeas, and soft gray-green succulents are some of the best plants for achieving this colour in your garden. For those looking for something a bit more unusual, Peony asters and Sicilian Honey Garlic are worth considering.
The Faded Petal trend also extends to bulbs. Six spring bulbs on the Faded Petal colour spectrum are available for bulb planting season. A highly unusual muscari variety with a delicate shade of creamy pale, pale pink is a must-have for Easter tablescaping next year.
The classic faded pink hydrangea tree acts as a wonderful cut flower and can live happily in a large container. This lilac has a staggering perfume and enormous flowers with a barely there faded pink tinge that are nearly always topped with butterflies or honey bees.
The 'La Dolce Vita' Italian ranunculus, a beautiful faded pink flower, makes for the most exquisite cut flower, growing up to 27 inches high. These pale, faded petal-hued plants pair well with chocolate-colored flowers, deep inky purples, and butter yellow plants like sunny cosmos and pale yellow rose varieties.
The Faded Petal trend offers a soothing, calming colour that is not an assault on the senses. These seeds are worth buying now as they are nearly always impossible to get in springtime. With its popularity on the rise, it's time to embrace the Faded Petal trend and bring a touch of elegance and tranquility to your garden.
