My gloriosa lilies did that to my beautiful blue and white chinese pot last year, so it got the serious glue up treatment. I am thinking I might put a lotus in it for the summer. I have only ever grown lotuses in aquariums and am seriously tempted by the thought of a sacred lotus in the courtyard. It bakes in the summer so would be the perfect place. The pot had a small crack in the base which was why I could afford it in the first place but the gloriosas multiplied so fiercely that they broke it open and took a big chunk out of it. Fortunately it was a clean cut and glued up so well it has filled up with rainwater over the winter, so has potential as a pond planter.
Thing is, deep pink, pale pink or white? Only one plant would be best, but which colour?
As for the fence line, espaliers will definitely work where the main supporting post are. It is a five wire with battens so as long as I place trees within cooee of the support posts which are solid beasts that would work fine. Maybe a couple of dwarf apples. They do get cheap later in the season...
