Combination Tips
Here are some tips for colors that works the best with the purple flowers names on this page.
In the garden, certain color combinations are especially effective at evoking particular moods
Yellow and purple: with bright yellow this is a carnival color mix. With pale yellow it produces an altogether classier, more subdued look.
Purple and reds: this color scheme conjures up a heavy feeling of regal opulence, which sometimes needs breaking up with a small amount of primrose yellow or pale blue.
Purple and orange: these two colors together can be used to create some of the most vibrant combinations of all.
Purple and grey: this combination may sound somber, bit it provides a distinctive look in sunny situations.
Very pale yellow also suits this color combination.
