Color Scheming

This year I chose my impatiens inspired by the garden center.  The way they were laid out looked like Impressionist watercolors.  As a base I chose Super Elfin Lilac impatiens.  One of each plant goes into each pot.  Next I chose Super Elfin Starburst Mix.  One lilac Starburst goes into each pot.  The remainder (pink, coral) are mixed around in the pots.  I think the effect is good, though difficult to photograph.   I have many pots in the front of the house, creating a wash of color.  Imagine this one container in the photo multiplied.
