- Potted Purples in the Desert
It is interesting to see how people prefer their colors together when combining flowers in a pot. I have a purple pot at home and plant purple flowers in it each season. This year, I combined red purples with blue purples and I am deciding what I think. Since the pot is viewed from a distance of 30-60 feet, depending on where you are in the yard, I think it works. What do you think?

grand daddy purple!
I love it!
I just did something similar in my backyard! My husband and I completely redesigned our yard this season and had most of it transformed into a lush grass lawn in the back. We had the Tucson sod installed by Evergreen Turf and then lined the walkways with blue pots with blue flowers inside. I love the look! Check out their website if you ever need sod, they did good work in my opinion: https://www.evergreenturf.com/
