Landscape gardens which have a coherent color mostly present unified look and often enjoyed by the public. There are certain principals for choosing the color of your garden landscape.
As it was mentioned, planned design and the plant location have a great unified appearance and public image. The easiest way is to choose four-season or year-round landscape. However you can see the results over the period of time that’s why you need to be patient.
Color of your garden should be based on a few guiding principles which can help you achieve the feeling and the look of accomplishment. If you want to achieve continuous results with your landscape color you should always follow these guidelines in order to avoid troubles.
Choosing color
Try to pick plants that present more than one season of color. There are special catalogs in nurseries that contain detailed characteristics of the plants. However landscape designers mostly give a preference to the plants for only one season, they have spectacular color of leaves or flowers or they choose plants that don’t require special maintenance.
 You should think over well before choosing the color in order that they could complement and be in harmony with buildings, the vegetation that exists there and landscape garden sites. If you pick the flaming red leaves and white color of a traditional New England home they will fit well together and help you create a simple but eye-catching landscape of a front yard. But you shouldn’t plant the same tree in a similar position near the red brick colonial home because these colors can blend or look unattractive.
Develop a scheme which includes two or three colors and follow it. It is hard to choose plants and their parts in pure primary colors but you may find a wide variety of tones and tints, hues and shades. Schemes that include different kinds of primary colors and subtle variation are always pleasing not only to the landscape gardener but to the members of family, visitors and people who just pass by the house. You can also plan restful and dainty landscape taking meticulous deliberation choosing only pastel colors and pick bright vigorous and dynamic colors for creating fanciful and playful landscapes.
What you should do
You need a color wheel or color circle which can be downloaded from the Internet or you can simply buy it. You can choose a color wheel which contains red, yellow and blue. It is a time-honored tool used by the artists. It is also very useful and valuable tool which is widely used by the landscape gardeners. The color wheel presents fundamental colors in simple manner and in reasonable arrangement. The arrangement and correlation of the colors will become a consistent and logical part of the design if a color wheel is used.

To the main colors belong red, yellow, and blue. Red and yellow are the hottest-feeling colors and blue is the coolest.
