You can combine the rather cool colors of the vanilla blossoms wonderfully with similar tones. In addition, you can also create a cold-warm contrast by choosing companion plants with yellow, orange or red flowers.
At best, combine your vanilla flower with plants that are also in bloom all summer.
It is advisable to surround the vanilla flower with plants that like it sunny and warm and prefer nutrient-rich soil.
Combine the vanilla flower in the bed
In the bed, the blue or purple vanilla flower looks dark. Plants with bright flower colors are therefore perfect for a combination. Yellow, red and white plants are particularly striking in combination with the vanilla flower. If, on the other hand, you prefer to create a wonderfully fragrant oasis, combine the vanilla flower with fragrant roses.
These specimens, among others, go well with the vanilla flower in the bed:
- Levkojen
- elf mirror
- daisies
- magic bell
- roses
Combine vanilla flower with marguerite
The daisy really shines in the presence of vanilla flower. Her white flower color contrasts purple and blue vanilla flowers most impressively. This combination is also convincing, as the two have similar location requirements and bloom all summer long.

With its cheerful colors, the Elfenspiegel is able to put the vanilla flower in a new role. The two don't compete. But for a nicer overall picture, it is advisable to place the elf mirror in front of the vanilla flower. Red and pink elf mirrors in particular look fantastic here.

Combine vanilla flower with aromatic stone rich
The scented stone goes well with the vanilla flower, because with its delicate, white clouds of flowers it can provide heart-rending accents. It is advisable to put something behind or to the sides of the vanilla flower. The duo will provide color and liveliness on the balcony for many months. The vanilla flower and the scented stone rich also have similar ideas in terms of location.
