The Accent (Companion) Plant Thread

[zachkent29]

Same rules as the "Tree Tree Thread," except post your accent plants.

If this gets half the participation of the tree thread, I'll be happy.

Grass on Chinese stone, on a burl from Dave Lowman. My accent from Nationals in 2014.

Good thread idea, maybe you'll get more response in spring when things are fresh and flowering.
One of my favourites, moss, native sedums and garden chives on a stone, third season since planting.

New to this year, plant dug from gravel pit and moss on dog bone, not a dogs actual bone but a bone you would give to a dog. Long and lanky from time in the mist house, should look good next year, it does flower.

 

[Brian Van Fleet]

Spider plant or something of the sort in a crimson Sharaku pot.

Portulaca "green moss rose" in a shell

My Tricyrtis has a nice bloom at the moment.

Very nice natural shari on that accent plant man.

Very nice natural shari on that accent plant man.

And you broke the rules...

This one should be nice next year, needs some time to grow together.

My accent plant at the BIB show last January:

 

[BMV Bonsai]

Zach being a fellow club member and friend of mine always has some really cool accent plants for shows and display ideas. I'm hoping some of his talent can rub off on me.

This is my first stab at an accent:
Lambs ear
Unknown pot.

 

[cockroach]

I only have one at the moment, lost my other two in the intense heat of summer and lack of rain.
I love the sedum accent by wire and Adair's spiral accent.

Dwarf Mondo Grass (Ophiopogon japonicus 'Nana') and Baby/Angel's Tears (Soleirolia soleirolii). Unfortunately most of the baby's tears dried out.

 

[zachkent29]

Same accent as the first post but with it's spring look. I like how the dead grass slowly get replaced with new growth.

Yep, erodium in a Tofukuji. Part of the display we put up for Ryan Bell's lecture at our club meeting this week.

Again I am loving this.

Thanks!
Me too, nice to see the photo, makes me anxious for snow to melt off my plants!
