Purple Flowers

Whether used in mass or planted to contrast with white, orange, gold or yellow, purple flowers make a bold statement.

Try planting purple with red flowers and then add white which will allow both of the other colors to truly pop.

Try this trio of colors to produce a vivid perennial bed but be sure that your selections will all bloom at the same time.
