Stick with a Single Shade
Varying the shades of two single colors such as red and yellow -- from soft and buttery, for example, to bold and sunny -- is one way to offer variation in a garden, but grouping different flowers that bloom in the same hue also provides impact in a garden. Here, rich yellow lilies and zinnias flower in a similar deep shade of yellow, which pops against a rich red dahlia.
Plant for Backyard Visitors
Bright red and yellow blooms also provide another garden benefit: The brilliant colors attract birds and butterflies. And, when the garden is composed of long-blooming native plants, such as coreopsis and blanket flower, the draw is even stronger for those natural inhabitants.
Cluster Color in Containers
You grandmother relied on them, and for good reason: Zinnias are vigorous, long lasting, and beautiful. In container plantings, clusters of red and yellow flowers are hardworking overachievers, hiding the ordinary fence and lattice and providing a pretty backdrop to two outdoor chairs.
