Garden Color Schemes

One of the most alluring features about flowers is their abundant colors.  Utilizing multiple floral varieties can turn your garden into a canvas allowing you to create your own masterpiece. I set the stage by starting with the Ice Plant. It is a colorful ground cover that comes in a variety of soft pinks, reds and purples.  Another enduring ground cover capable of lighting up the ground in early spring is Sedum.  A  midsized plant to spread throughout your garden is Snap dragon. Snap dragons come in a multitude of colors, are easy to grow and add splashes of color throughout the entire season.  For height, I plant Salvia in brilliant dark blues and light purples adding Rudbeckia in a complimentary bright gold. With so many floral varieties and colors to select from I recommend starting with what works best in your zone.   Cheers
