Soft, luminous whites are taking centre stage in 2026, inspired by Cloud Dancer, the Colour of the Year from Pantone. Chosen for its gentle warmth and airy elegance, this subtle shade reflects a growing desire for calm, light, and restorative spaces. In the garden, Cloud Dancer finds its most natural expression in the moon garden, also known as a lunar garden, where pale blooms are chosen specifically to glow in evening light.

When it comes to creating an interesting and harmonious garden, the way you arrange your plants can make all the difference. English roses, with their exquisite forms and captivating fragrances, are the perfect example. Planting them in clusters of three, five or more, particularly when you choose the same variety, is one of the simplest and most effective ways to bring both balance and character to your outdoor space.
