– Red added to green via tulips
– Oranges continued from last year
– Yellow remained popular
– White, a major plant choice, teamed with gray foliage
 
MATERIALS AND TYPES
– Wood was everywhere
– It was newly painted in unexpected hues, like orange
– Copper advanced for garden structures and metallic wall finishes
– Pleached trees made a comeback
– Pink roses fell in clouds from archways.
– Rhododendrons began a return to popularity, which was hinted at in 2012.

FORMATS AND MOTIFS 
– The past and future became popular garden-design themes

– Owls advanced in garden sculpture
– They joined dogs and horses
– London stores tapped into the Great Gatsby fever with glamor, bling and swing
