Plenty of flowerbeds randomly intersperse colors to create a pleasing mix. But staggering blooms in larger chunks can create a pretty rainbow effect that also works as a design strategy, even if the flowers are different varieties, such as the lilies and red pentas here.
Be Fearless with Color Groups
Red and yellow plants tend to fall toward the hot end of the color wheel, which offers a great counterpoint to the plethora of pastel shades found in most gardens. Plus, when the types of flowers are the same -- here, cottage favorites yellow black-eyed Susan, dark red dahlia, and light purple foxglove -- the color composition not only works, but also provides a garden with varying levels of visual interest.
Go for a Lighter Color
In the flower world, red and yellow are also prevalent in softer, nearly pastel shades. And when planted lushly, a single species, such as roses, compensates for those less intense hues by offering an overabundance of blooms that nicely fills out a large garden bed.
