Colour Combinations
Pansy Wine and Cheese
BOLD COLOUR WILL IMPRESS
Featuring bold colour combinations of yellow, red and purple flowers set against deep green foliage, Delta Wine and Cheese will attract attention in massed displays, containers, hanging baskets and garden beds. Renowned for their strong performance, Delta pansies display excellent heat tolerance and are recognized as the most prolific and earliest flowering pansies on the market. This, combined with short stems and a uniform growth habit, enables Delta pansies to perform extremely well under a variety of seasonal conditions. We also have a wide range of existing colour mixes available, or you can use the following as a guideline when establishing a colour theme in your garden. - Colour themes that work well use related colours such as reds, oranges and yellows (warm colours) or blues and purples (cool colours).
- Warm coloured flowers bring excitement into the landscape and tend to appear close to the viewer, making the space in which they are planted feel smaller.
- Cool colour flowers, however, appear more distant, creating a greater sense of garden space. Cool colours also tend to relax and soothe viewers.
- Using shades of one colour (including white) is also a popular and attract theme.
- Another effect comes from using complementary colours - such as those colours found directly opposite each other on a colour wheel
- (oranges and blues or purples and yellows). These combinations form high colour contrasts and create a lot of excitement and interest in the landscape.
- Always be aware of surrounding colours to achieve a coordinated overall design. The best way to set off annual flower colours and textures is to provide a simple backdrop of green vegetation.
