I think a summer garden needs to have a little red and blue in it! Take this little garden from
Notes from a Cottage Garden. The white fence, with a little red bee balm, white daisies and blue bachelor's buttons is as charming and summery as it gets!
Another summer charmer uses red flowers as the mainstay and alternates the blue and white pots and still comes off as completely charming! The
Armstrong Garden blog uses red salvia and petunias to create this summery scene!
Blue is a hard flower to find, so maybe you will want to use the blue in the physical sense, as in a fence or a door or a planter, like this house did. I think a blue door is simply adorable.
So which was your favorite? How do you like to use red and blue in your summer garden? Any suggestions for those of us who are still looking? Let us know in the comments!
