There is no arguing about what design is best for a garden: how many people, so many views. Some people prefer to use color combinations in the garden landscape in the order in which they appear in the rainbow. Others believe that using purple flowers for flower beds is not the best thing.
Actually, about plants with purple flowers, psychologists have a whole system regarding who they "suit" and who not. There is practically no person who would be indifferent to this color: either the individual likes it, acting on him soothingly or arousing romantic feelings, or he absolutely does not like it, awakening melancholy and being associated with death. Many even specially plant lilac phloxes, lilacs, purple or yellow-purple irises on the graves of loved ones.
But still, you can't call purple flowers a symbol of death. After all, nature itself gives us the joy of its awakening after a long winter - crocuses,primroses, snowdrops, which have a purple or lilac color. And the pink-lilac wild rosemary blooming in Siberia? It is even called the seventh wonder of the world!
Again, according to psychologists, people with a creative temperament, melancholic by temperament, prefer purple. In their perception, purple is the color of luxury, mystery and romance. Its proximity in some shades to lilac and pink gives it tenderness and glamour. And flowers such as purple tulips or roses, which are extremely rare, are considered extravagant and exotic at all.
So, if an amateur florist does not mind purple flowers growing on his plot, he can be recommended to plant them in the garden so that after the flowering of one species, the buds of another bloom.
Let purple flowers be the first to give their beauty. For example, crocuses. Sometimes they are also called saffron. Lovers of bright colors are extremely suitable varieties Remembrance, Crocus vernus, Flower Record. Interesting varieties of Tomasini, Ruby Giant - they have an original color with an admixture of purple. The Zibera variety is characterized by tricolor: purple petals and a yellow center with a delicate white edging.
And after the primroses comes the time of iridodictium reticulum, in the people - iris. Those who love purple flowers will be pleased with the dark, juicy shades of Pauline and Jeannine, the bluish ones - Michael, or the reddish irises of the J. S. Dijt.
Then purple flowers bloom in turn, the names of which are familiar even to those who are weak in botany. These are hyacinths, tulips, lupins, phloxes, delphiniums. You can arrange flower beds in the garden, in which flowers of the same species will be successfully combined, but different in color, for example, lupins or phloxes. Soft transitions in colors from bright purple to blue or red will be pleasing to the eye.
Experienced flower growers even treat plantings of ordinary lilacs with due attention.
