Use a Color Wheel to Plan Your Garden - Part 3

Choice Six: Double Complements
To add more plant and color variety to a garden, you can also employ a more complex color composition, such as a double complementary. To do that, choose two adjacent colors -- red (dahlias used here) and orange-yellow (black-eyed Susan shown here), for example -- and pick their complements across the color wheel. In that case, it's green and purple.



More Complementary Ideas

Purple and yellow pops up in plenty of gardens, and for good reason: The two hues are the prime example of matching complementary colors from the color wheel for an arrangement of flowers that's pleasing to the eye. Here it's a yellow pansy with blue salvia.

This lovely trio of lilies gently steps around one side of the color wheel for a lush pastel combination that showcases the calmer, cooler side of orange, pink, and yellow.
