Nature puts all kinds of colors together. People are the ones that get anxious about putting flower colors together--don't mix cool and warm colors; don't put pink next to orange; use red sparingly, it's a hot color; etc. Nature is just filling in empty spaces with weeds, flowers, shrubs, and trees. She uses the wind, animals (seeds stick to their coats and drop off somewhere else), people (sometimes we do like the animals, and sometimes we see a flower and take its seeds to plant in our garden); and most especially, nature uses birds to transport seeds. I read somewhere one time that "nature arbores a vacuum", which I figured meant open ground in gardening terms. If you love a riot of color, enjoy it in your garden! Plant what you love and nature will applaud you!
