It’s almost as fun to come up with the pretty combos as it is to actually grow them. Lol. :)

I'm not good with the collages. I think some of those clash. I have no vision, if it works it works, lol. That's me.

One thing I will mention is bloom time. I planted some a white clematis with a purple one hoping for some pretty contrast. But it turned out they bloom at completely different times so I never see my planned outcome. I mean, they are still pretty and it means a longer bloom period in that one area, but not what I had originally intended.

And dillybeansown, I love your collages!

As someone who was a floral designer for over 25 years, the collages posted above absolutely do not clash! They look great.

See what I mean! I thought the orange thing in upper right top photo clashed. :( not great at this. Everything else looks good though. It's hard for me to even tell ftom thd college's though for certain. Guess I will just plant it ghe best I can and if it clashes, move it later,

Popmama, that’s so true! You can plan all you like, but sometimes the plants just do what they do. :) and thank you. :)

Alana, purple and orange took a while for me to find appealing, also. :) It is definitely one of the more jarring color combos. just plant what you love, and you’ll find some combos that you keep forever, and others you can’t wait to move. Lol. Everyone has their own style, and every garden grows differently. I’m sure yours will be beautiful.

Thank you, buyorsell!
