If it's tangerine and not pumpkin or true orange, it's not quite an autumn color....?

Don't forget good lighting.... :)

That looks very nice!

i love the orange! go for it! also can i add that the porch lights are a bit under scaled. because the were placed so high, you have room to fill below if that makes sense,

i do like the green too seeing this ...

What about times the front door is left open? and it's seen with your yellows?

I like the green better than the orange......... will you be adding any copper accents? idk why that came to mind.........

Well, cause I have some time, here's a coleus {?} in copper.... maybe lime and burgundy plantings would pop against the grey. Is exterior grey? And like indoor corrugated metal, copper has a tactile....

Had you considered not verdigris like I posted, but true lime? Was your post a lime?.... I might be lost a bit!

I was just showing my MIL some of your thread - your post of 3 months ago showing a cool water feature --- maybe was copper.... ?

Well, it's popular on houzz to hear: wait a while until more permanent elements are in place, and live with it a while...... oh is the front door merely primer?

What about barn or apple red /a warm and homey look for a setting like yours.... and with warm aged copper.... ?

compared to metal of the house and a saturated green or orange.... but come to think of it, your inside is sort of contemporary isn't it?! hmmm....

Fooled me - the fountain looked substantial and peaceful either way.... is it a Kelly/ emerald green? and you don't want anymore yellow in it to make lime then, just checking... :)

A true green can look nice with bright navy..... plant green [like door] groundcover on each side of pathway and place Adirondack chairs in blue... ?

Do you have a fence on the property? white could be nice with green and blue, but I'm repeating myself.....

Your coleus post just came and so I like that.... it's not grey is it....

Yeh, because you already have a bright [green], I thought a sporty-casual navy might be nice.... but you are not afraid of color!!!! :) and it'd seem kinda conservative too.

A neutral house, and you can play....!

The pots look nice & the pets peeking out window. I love the cedar.

Hi Down! Good to see u! Nice lights.

the barn lights make sense, just no curve to the arm. and yes the green is cool

i think you should wait on the bench until the planting

I'm tired - I read your post without noticing your sidewalk.... well I am interested in planting [though you didn't quite mention that sorry], so I copied this: "Coleus can be grouped into 3 forms: upright, rounded and trailing. Frequent snipping, pinching and trimming can help modify form although the trailing varieties have great value at the edge of a planter or in a hanging basket. Planting and Care-- Coleus has long been considered a shade plant but the best leaf color is achieved with morning sun and some degree of afternoon shade. Many varieties do well in both shade and part-sun. Some can take quite a bit of sun as long as they are not allowed to dry out."

Your photo of coleus: could have the trailing in 1 color near porch in 'sunset' or 'red'? and other more mass in the ground with front door's green.... bring the green out and over ....

where did you go??????

oh you think you can just teach ppl lol! Im good, just thought about this thread and thought.. where the beef....(old commercial)

Merry Christmas!
