Help!! Should I group roses by colours

shopshops
9 years ago

Hello everyone!
Its planting and obsessing time again. I finally worked up the courage to eliminate most of my front lawn. Thank God I have no HOA. I have 66 roses on order. They will be interspersed with several perennials. There are several colours. Mainly pinks (my favourite), but also reds, apricots, lavenders, yellows and whites. The roses are a mix of moderns, antiques, floribundas and hybrid teas. All of the 66 roses will not be placed in this bed only some of them. They will be planted with respect for their heights and mature size.

The bed is huge. I am not good at averaging but it is at least 40 ft X 20 ft and will be square.

THE QUESTION IS: SHOULD I PLANT BASED ON SIMILAR COLURS GROUPED TOGETHER INTERSPERSED WITH THE WHITES AND PERENNIALS?

Because the bed is so huge I don't want to shock my neighbors with a riot of colour since I am already rocking their world with the lawn removal. All suggestions will be appreciated. I start planting in a couple weeks.
Much thanks in advance.
