Maybe you shouldn't decide at all. Why choose just one color, when you can have the entire spectrum? Multicolor perennial flowers will transform your garden into a living tapestry, dotting the landscape with a variety of colors. With multicolor perennials, you get the consistency of using a single flower, but gain the spontaneity of unexpected color combinations.
