Question

Zone 6 and 7. Love multiple colors of flowers. Does anybody help me know what to plant together? My neighbors plant all red flowers. Looks great from afar. I like to have different sections of colors. How do I accomplish this and still look elegant? Have been planter gardening but willing to plant in ground
