Use Color to Make a Statement
As a front-yard focal point, a bold collection of yellow daylilies and red roses makes a grand first impression. The flower choices complement the other plants in the casually assembled bed around the house's address post and the bright colors deftly tie in to other hues in the landscape.
Compare and Contrast
The varieties of flowers in the plant world come in to stark focus when two dissimilar blooms are paired. The frilly vertical spires of celosia -- here, in a nearly maroon red -- both contrasts and complements the delicate patterning on the butter yellow rose.
Stay with the Tried-and-True
It's an oft-repeated spring pairing -- red, yellow, and red-and-yellow tulips -- but that's because it works. In part, it's because the vivid colors are such a welcome early-year boon to the gardener. It's also because the two colors together are naturally happy and lighthearted.
Go Up, Go Down
Red and yellow flowers can certainly spread color joy horizontally along a long garden bed, but there are plenty of bright blooms that can go vertical, such as this lush climbing red rose. Another way to fill in with yellow and red flowers is to combine perennials -- the roses -- with annuals, such as pot marigolds and yellow snapdragons, both of which are great cutting flowers, too.
