I'm at a loss....I had originally thought about pastel flowers vs. grey round eucalyptus..something like this

But then I realized, one's supposed to take the site into consideration. duh, me! And here's what it looks like

A colonial casona. Ocre yellow think adobe walls, large blocks of dark wood, dark red terracotta floors, forged iron lamps and details.

Please, if anybody has any ideas, or flowers, or colors, anything that would go well...I'd be very thankful
thanks!

I totally think that you should go with what you love...but here are a few pics that I think would look nice.

I'd go with red, dark oranges, yellows.

You could also go with green -- I could even see lush plants as centerpieces in that room.

Personally, I think what you have posted would be beautiful. I think they go well together.

I think your flowers you posted would look wonderful. Maybe add some more pale yellow roses into the mix to make it fit in more, but really those walls are not so obtruse that they'd ruine any colour scheme!

For some reason I'm thinking vibrant and tropical, like hibiscus!
