Perfect flower combos?

[Cosmic-chan]

What are the best combos of flowers? From color to type!
Not my idea thx clockwise

Reddit user N8vtxn has made some wonderful flower mixes.

Personally, I just combine flowers by trial and error until I'm happy with how they look. Before I start, though, I think about if I want a combination that is more complementary (blue + yellow + green) or contrasting (orange + blue). Usually, I base the flower arrangement palette on the building it's closest to.

I also tend to put "fuller" body flowers (pansies, cosmos, windflowers, roses, mums) adjacent to the thinner ones (hyacinths, lillies, tulips). There is no method to my madness -- I just think this looks nicer. XD

This is quite useful. Thank you.

I got rid of my green mums now I wish I kept them! I'll keep this mind!

My island is only decorated with hyacinths, and they all look great together especially the purple, blue, yellow, orange, white and pink. With hydrangea bushes, it’s even better. I wish they bloomed all year

I love the way this sounds!

I find that white and pink windflowers along with white and pink hyacinths accent beaches really really nicely if you want to keep with the light color of sand, but of course this is just my personal opinion =^.^=

I will keep this in mind.

I think anything pink and orange is a good combination, especially hyacinths.

While I do mix my flowers, because there's just so many and I feel like I need to make use of them all, there's something extremely appealing about just an entire field filled with one flower of one color, especially yellow for me since that's my favorite.

I found that out randomly by dumping all of my flowers in front of my house, as well as displaying some of my items I didn't have storage space for, and my yellow lilies (my favorite flower + color!) cloned like crazy, filling the entire section and all the way around my sphinx and bamboo grasses. And it looked... really beautiful actually. So now I'm brainstorming as to how the hell I'm going to squeeze that into an area of my already fully planned island.

Another thing I noticed "on accident" was that blue windflowers are a REALLY nice contrast on the beaches. Didn't plan for this either, I just had a full inventory and I had to go there for a while, but now I am committing to it full-time it seems.

As for combinations, I like to mostly pair the same type of flower with different colors, as I haven't really figured out what shapes look good together yet. But I randomly dumped some pink and orange tulips with orange and yellow pansies and some blue windflowers in an area, and it looks very tropical and not all that bad. Might have to experiment with that.

At last, I leave you all with this handy chart that puts all flower's colors on a spectrum, maybe it'll be helpful in someones flower arranging endeavours (really wish I knew what social media that credit handle belongs to, so I can actually drop a link...)

My favorite combos are:

Black Cosmos + Orange Pansies

Black Cosmos + Blue Hyacinths + Purple Hyanciths

Black Roses + Purple Mums

White Roses + Pink Hyanciths (Reverse is also good)

Red Roses + Black Tulips

 

[Marshmallows]

I think my absolute favorite combination is purple and white hyacinths with some pink ones mixed in.

Pink Hyacinth x White Cosmos is super cute
I don't have any on my island right now, but in NL i always loved mixing pink and purple flowers. I think Pink Mums would look adorable with Purple Pansies

This sounds like the perfect space theme combo!! I must use this.

My island is just full of different colour roses and white Azalea bushes. But I like the look of pink and red roses with white hyacinths.
