Which Wedding Flowers Match With What?

Your wedding color theme is a major factor in the overall look of your wedding. Your color scheme, if well selected, will bring unity and beauty to the flowers and decorations at your ceremony and reception. As you plan your event, consider the colors that will be found in your flowers, linens and accessories. Many people select their wedding or special event colors based on their favourite shade or favourite flower. However, if your favourite color does not match with your hall, you might want to reconsider. If the all the chairs at the hall are burgundy for example, please do not choose fire engine red! Your chosen colors should also reflect your personality, especially in the case of wedding flowers.

Here are some general guidelines as to which flowers come in which colors and what the color scheme matches well with.

What is the name of the bush that blooms hot pink flowers?

I'm looking for a small bush that I can plant in our yard. I know that there is a bush (?) that bears hot pink flowers. Does anyone know the name of it or have similar ideas? Actually that bush (?) that I'm thinking of doesn't have any green in it when the hot pink flowers are in bloom.

Flowering quince (Chaenomeles) blooms in early spring before leaves come out. See http://tinyurl.com/6pxmns

Tea tree (Leptospermum) has tiny dark leaves that might not be visible through the profuse flowers. See http://tinyurl.com/6nvj8h

If you can take a photo of the one you've seen, a local garden center should be able to help you identify it and know whether it's a good fit for the sun/soil in your yard.
