Sunrize, your containers sound really striking!
I always wish black Mondo could be a little bigger.
Silvers are among my favorites,too.
I've never ceased to be amazed at the magical effect they have. If you add them carefully, pactically evey toughest combination problem can be magically solved.

We have a great variety of floweing kales you mentioned in Japan. They differ in color,size ,and shape. Evey year I sow the seeds of large- and medium-sized ones. In November they're beginning to color and I make containers.

Last fall I made the container of dark-colored kales exclusively,which was expected to be dramatic.
But it didn't satisfy me and I put some smaller light-colored ones among them.
Color combinations are so challenging!
