Peach Fuzz is a soothing shade that evokes feelings of comfort, connection, and kindness, making it the perfect inspiration for a tranquil garden retreat. Here at Encore Azalea, we’re all about “must-see” garden color that blooms again and again, so we’ve curated a list of color combos that make peach positively pop in the garden!
Peach and Pink
Dark pink shades pair perfectly with Peach Fuzz, and Autumn Jewel® is a dazzling match with two-inch single blooms and deep green foliage. An added allure of Autumn Jewel® is the foliage transformation in winter when its leaves shift from green to a captivating purple hue.
Autumn Debutante® is another flawless pairing with peach, with picturesque ballet pink three-inch single blooms. Dense, evergreen foliage forms a backdrop that makes an ideal hedge or privacy screening with this intermediate-sized azalea.
Peach and Orange-Bronze
Make peach pop in your landscape with foliage pairings that create a smoldering glow. Start with our perfectly peach-hued Encore, Autumn Coral®. It delivers a staggering profusion of spring, summer, and fall peach blooms at a height that’s perfect for low-flowering hedges or container plantings. Pair it with Coppertop® Sweet Viburnum, bringing in earthy tones that evoke a sense of vibrancy and comfort, or the bright gold foliage of Fire Chief™ Arborvitae to create a luxurious duet with peach, much like the glow of sunlight on fresh apricots.
Fiery Red and Peach
For a tropical feel, pair the blazing red blooms of Autumn Bravo® with peach. This daring color combination contrasts boldly with a canvas of lush evergreen foliage in darker emerald hues. Ignite fiery red azalea blooms against the peach hues of a lower-growing selection like a begonia or petunia to create a dynamic duo evocative of a setting sun.
Dreamy White and Peach
In tranquil locations, the masses of petite white blooms on Autumn Ivory® are a chic canvas upon which peach hues take center stage. This timeless pairing creates a gentle gradient for foundation plantings or in containers and smaller spaces.
With your plan for a peach-hued oasis taking shape, remember that the charm lies in the details. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different shades of peach, from soft corals to warm apricots, to create depth and visual interest. Let your accent colors be bold, but use them purposefully to avoid overwhelming your landscape’s visual harmony. Consider incorporating textural elements like grasses and fine-leaved shrubs to add dimension and soften the palette. By carefully selecting various peach-toned flowers, foliage, and complementary accent colors, you can create a garden that radiates warmth, tranquility, and elegance.
