I live in zone5. St. Louis.I like the spain style (i think) over mexico. My house is white brick with bits of red brick showing. I like color too. I'm thinking red blooms, white, yellow, and what--purple? Of course green and plantings like--ferns? What kinds of plants and flowers should I plant?

Plant "live oak" trees and flowering almond. A sunny rock garden with creeping phlox and sedum stonecrop would make a good showing spring through fall. Ferns would look great close to the house with a colorful annual border. Try to create arches and recesses as they play a large role in Spanish architecture. An arbor may help. I am not sure if olive trees will grow well in your area, but they make a stately appearance in a Spanish theme.
