Flower gardens add visual interest to your home, improve its curb appeal and encourage you to interact with nature. When planning a colorful
flower garden, include a variety of perennials, annuals and bulbs that
bloom at various times during the spring, summer and fall, so you can
enjoy the flowers for several months at a time. Plant flowers in five or six colors for a more dramatic garden. Use a
color wheel to choose various color combinations or coordinate your
flowers with the colors of your house or outdoor décor.
Monochromatic gardens make use of a single color to create a visually appealing display. A single color garden design is anything but boring if done well. Variations in shades and textures keep this garden interesting. Get ideas about creating a monochromatic color garden below.
