Combine bright, boldly colored annuals in mass plantings to draw attention to an entrance or storefront. Bright reds, oranges and yellows in the landscape or containers draw the eye with their vibrancy and intensity.
Mix cool colors like blues, greens and purples in more intimate settings such as pathways, small garden areas or along residential decks to create a serene mood, where visitors will be drawn to the detail of the flowers.
Don’t underestimate the power of neutral shades. Combine white in the foreground with blacks and burgundies, and the darker tones will pop in comparison. White or silver plantings give brightness and interest in shady areas.
