From trial Ground to the Red Carpet
Beacon® at the GRAMMY Awards®
This week Ball Colegrave's NEW Beacon® Impatiens brought the red carpet to life as the showcase floral selected by Tu Bloom Designs®, the official Botanical Artist for the GRAMMY Awards®.
The 62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards® acknowledged top-performing recording artists during music’s biggest night, and millions of viewers saw Beacon® Impatiens welcome the stars to the red carpet with its own top performance.
This garden-to-glamour display included 40 topiaries of Beacon® White Impatiens atop a lavish carpet of Beacon® Bright Red Impatiens. In total, 3,700 plants adorned the entrance at The Staples Center in Los Angeles and add a touch of living colour to this annually televised and much-anticipated event.
2020 is the official launch to the home gardener for the outstanding Beacon® Impatiens, which brings high-fashion colour performance back to their outdoor living spaces. What better occasion to celebrate a rising star than with a gorgeous debut on the red carpet!
Beacon® Impatiens grows stronger and shines longer by filling gardens with its bright colours. Key to its performance is high resistance to Impatiens Downy Mildew (IDM), a destructive disease that has affected garden impatiens for over a decade.
Now, with its proven quality, Beacon® Impatiens fills hanging baskets, window boxes and garden borders with colourful flowers, and fills gardeners with confidence.
We were very privileged to be able to trial these last year in our garden in King's Heath, the results were outstanding, they were still filling the garden with colour when they were cut down by the first frosts of the winter in mid-November.
