Wijnrood

The bordeaux colour brings depth and a bit of mystery to your flower beds. Rich shades from dark red to purple work great as a contrast to soft pastel flowers, but they also stand their ground on their own in striking bouquets. You can find these dark tones in many plant species, from spring bulbs to late autumn perennials. If you are considering how to grow dahlias, you will soon discover that bordeaux varieties are among the most interesting and form the perfect foundation for autumn arrangements. Similarly, dark spring flowers can beautifully liven up a waking flower bed. Try reading how to grow tulips and plant some bordeaux ones, perhaps next to pure white flowers, which will nicely balance out their intensity.
