I do not like red flowers but I am branching out. What colors do you use with your red flowering plants?

To me red, orange and yellow go well together. A red and white combo also looks nice.

Blues go well with red. Hard to beat a good ol' red, white and blue

I found a red daylily it does have yellow throat so I think yellow is a going to work. Now I will go in search for some white. I have the blue bells I can add to the bed.

Thank you

I'm fond of purple and red with a little yellow thrown in.

Me, too !
I'm just not crazy about red and pink together.

For some reason, I do not like orange flowers. However, the previous owner of this house loved orange flowers and I inherited more than I ever wanted ...

I found that planting whites and creamy colored flowers with or near them, seemed to calm things down a lot. Over time, I have tried to add blue colored flowers. I was afraid to jump in with a lot of colors at once because I thought the beds would look like fire pits.

I think that kind of approach would work with adding red flowers to the garden.

I stayed away from orange for a long time but am gradually adding bits of it but tempered with blue. Not a big fan of pink though although I have a few roses in pink that I can handle.

Yes you have expressed why I have never purchased red flowers. I like calming colors.

Try blue -- blue is wonderful and goes with more or less anything - it cools reds, adds zing to whites and yellows. Blue, yellow and white is a classic combination that we use every year - often with a red accent or two, because rules have to be broken to make them work visually!

I like lemon yellows rather than golden yellows - seems more soothing to me.
