Five Tips for Incorporating Color into Your Landscaping Design

Beautiful property landscapes are rarely random acts of nature. They are the result of careful planning. Thoughtful gardeners create unity and coherence; highlight a focal point or two; balance their color schemes, plantings and other features; and try to maintain an eye-pleasing rhythm across the yard. An understanding of the color wheel and the diversity of common blooming plants, shrubs and trees is also very useful. The good news is that with a few helpful guidelines you can create an amazing, colorful landscape around your home or property. The follow tips will help:

1. Think about what kind of impression you want to create with your landscaping. This is the planning stage. Do you want your plantings to be a powerful attention-getter? If so, consider bright red and yellow combinations. Red adds energy and excitement and yellow speaks of sunshine and friendliness. Together, these two colors can make a powerful statement. They�re also very seasonal. You can easily combine cheery red and yellow tulips to welcome spring and yellow black-eyed Susan plants with stately red dahlias in the heat of summer. On the other hand, if you want your yard to represent a cool retreat, blues, purples, pinks and variegated greens can convey your intentions. White is always a wonderful filler color to mix into any color scheme.

2. Create unity and coherence in your landscaping design. The easiest way to do this is to choose one dominant color and sprinkle it in small plantings around the yard. You may or may not use the same flower each time, but you should repeat the same color here, there and everywhere. Although perennials are more expensive initially, they will reproduce and can be divided over time. You can also consider supplementing with repeat plantings of annuals such as purple petunias, yellow marigolds or rust-colored fall mums.
