Drama doesn’t have to stop by Thanksgiving if you know how to pack a pot as gorgeous as this one. It stopped me in my tracks the other day, rushing to hear teacher/writer Rick Darke speak at the National Arboretum.
But because I don’t know what plants these are and discerning readers want plant names, damn it, I’ll shoot this link to someone at the Arb for a quick plant ID.
UPDATE: National Arb horticulturist Scott Aker writes to tell me these plants are "Furcraea foetida ‘Mediopicta’ and Kalanchoe thyrsifolia, I believe."
Notice the fudge factor there, the "I believe"?

I can certainly see why that stopped you in your tracks. Thanks for posting this since I just learned about a new plant that I probably need to own (the Furcraea).
It is a fab container….
Make that two people who “believe” those are the names of the plants in the photo!
