I read somewhere that I am not supposed to put a few very striking ones together because they detract from each other but instead to accent them with less flashy colors.


I do whatever I want because it's my garden! I don't plant to please anybody but me. I have my more unusual ones planted in groups where I can see them better, towards the front of the beds. I guess because I like them I don't notice one being more distracting than another! The only thing I try to pay attention to is the size... I don't want to lose the view of the smaller ones by planting big varieties in front.
When all is said and done, there’s more said than done.
