Arrangement and Planting

Needs and Quantity

When looking for good combinations, color is fun, but there are other factors to consider as well such as: how tall that plant will get, does it spread, how many will you need to fill the garden, sun, soil and water needs. Do you want to plan on planting the colors in a way that forms a shape when they bloom like a star or red and white stripes?
