The luminous palette - a rich, stained glass collection of citrus, scarlet and pinky-purples - is the first of Sarah’s colour combinations that we’ll walk through in depth for this episode of the Colour Guide Mini Series.

Sarah explains the six key colours, which ones to use together throughout the year, and the flower families which she considers the most prominent and productive as they pass the colour baton through the year.

In this episode, discover:

• How to use Sarah’s luminous palette without overwhelming your garden
• The key plant families and varieties that reliably deliver bold, stained‑glass colour
• Sarah’s favourite colour combinations and how to place ‘shouty’ colours so they look intentional
• A simple season‑by‑season planning method using two‑month blocks and the ‘bride, bridesmaid, gatecrasher’ idea to keep colour going from March to October
