Hi all,
I'm looking for a plant for my containers. It needs to tolerate heat and humidity (I'm in Atlanta), and it is a partial sun/partial shade location. Foliage color is my main concern: I'm looking for something with silver or grey tones, or in a soft green. Blooms would be nice, but not necessary, and only in white or red. It needs to be around 10 inches across, give or take a few, and no more than 18 inches tall. And it needs to be something that won't hurt cats. I've tried lungwort, which wasn't happy, alyssum, which can't take the summer, and rosemary, which needs more sun. Currently I have scented geraniums to fill the space. Any suggestions?
