Let the front door be a focal point. This could be done using warm colors such as red, yellow and orange, which tend to catch the eye. Color groupings can also have an immense impact, Williams said. I like masses of color where you have one color theme. Colors tend to run in trends, Williams said.
Color is funny because it runs like clothing.
There is a trend right now for blues, light blue and violet. They seem to evoke a calming mood. A little less color could be used if the gardener wishes to create a secondary focal point. Williams suggests using more subtle colors or woody plants such as dwarf nandina and herbaceous perennials. Perennials that have outgrown their space or just need to be moved should be worked in the fall.
