What red and white flowers can I plant fo rthis summer - poss longer ?

I usually plant a load of geraniums in pots but this year apart form trying to grow my own I would love to have a better choice - I like BLOOD red plants not pinky reds - any ideas? Also white flowers ? what is easy to look after? Our house has shady sides and sunny sides so we can plant in the right area - I would love some climbing plants - I adore roses but im crap at pruning? any other options....thankyou!

Gladioli, Lupins, hollyhocks are mixed colours but you could sow seed and weed out the colours you don't want.
Reply:You could try Dahlia's. They come in many shades of red %26amp; even black. You could also try some of the red dwarf roses. They do well in or out of pots.
Reply:Just pop to your garden centre... you will be spoilt with choice of everything. and probably will end up like me:i had to get there twice to collect everything that I've got. and a nice boy did explain me lots and lots of useful stuff. and if it wasn't for him i probably bought 3 times more than i did. but it is sooo much better compare to the grocery shopping! I don't tell you more.
Reply:Begonias, bizzie lizzies, petunias. All now come in loads of colours even red and white. gorgeous!
Reply:Impatiens, Zinnias, Gladioli, Lilies, Petunias, Yarrows, Phlox, they are easy to look after and available in red and white.



For climbing plant you can try Clematis, available in red and white too. If you don't know how to prune, just buy Clematis with Group 3 pruning, cause you just need to cut them hard 12 inches above ground each early spring and they will bloom from new growth.



Hydrange Hornli has red flowers, hydrangea Annabelle has white flowers. Easy perennials to maintain.
Reply:If you love roses. plant roses. Prune them in the late fall after the first frost, or early spring before the plants bud to just above thefirst bud point. You could fill in between them with petunias and snap dragons until the roses fill out, and if you livein the right zone, those plants might self seed.
Reply:Red and whiten Petunias
