Plants with a split complementary color relationship with Salvia VIBE 'Ignition Purple'

About Split Complementary Colors

The split complementary color scheme is a subtle variation of the standard complementary color scheme. It uses a given flower color and the two colors immediately adjacent to its complementary on a color wheel. This blend of shades provides good contrast and a harmonious look and is widely used in fashion design. Most people find it familiar even if they don´t know the proper name for this grouping.

In the garden, this is one of the most pleasant color combinations.

Here are the possible combinations for split complementary colors:

NOTE: Because there are no green flowered Salvias, we are including the bract color in our determination of this color relationship.

Clearly I am addicted to Flowers by the Sea! I think I've just about ordered at least one of everything! The plants are all super healthy, and arrive in great shape owing to the (patented?) packing method. The hummingbirds, bees and butterflies are in 7th heaven. I HIGHLY recommend FBTS...

Flowers always arrive perfectly wrapped with many in bud or blooming. The salvias are my favorite as I buy those for the hummers. FBTS are wonderful people to work with if there are questions concerning the order and the plants I purchase from them are beautiful and healthy.

I've been gardening for hummingbirds for the past 30+ years. Since my needs are so specific (and I live in an area where most of the best hummer attractants do not), I've used mail order suppliers almost exclusively. My choices have worked over the years - especially in 2005 when we were visited...

Just one day's shipping and my plants were delivered, packed so nicely with loving care. They are just lovely, already with tiny buds just ready to bloom and I am ready to add them to my salvia garden for everyone to see and we all can talk about salvias and our love for them and all other...

The three salvias received were by far in the best condition of any plants that I have ever ordered. They were beyond healthy, packed carefully, and arrived quickly. I left them out to \"harden\" and after being planted are doing great. Superb transaction and I recommend most strongly Flowers by...

I have ordered twice now from Flowers by the Sea. Both times the plants have been some of the best I have ever received by mail order and I have used several vendors. I like to attach hummingbirds to the garden and have never a selection that had so many choices.
