"Metal elements add contrast, interest in gardens

Though it may seem like an unlikely mix, metal forms in the garden enhance the colors and shapes of the living things. Plants with metallic-looking foliage can add shimmer and light, too. Among the good choices: Heuchera 'Midas Touch,' 'Cinnabar Silver' or 'Pewter Veil' and Persian shield plant (Strobilanthes dyerianus)." -By Valerie Easton
