Help me design my garden! *Updated with new pics*

I have:

3 flats of marigolds:
yellow, orange, mixed (one of each)

3 flats of begonias:
red, white, pink (one of each)

Here is the area where I would like to plant them, but don't know what to put next to each other, which colors to mix, etc, etc.

(I still have to weed out the garden area in the left of this picture)

Re: Help me design my garden!

I like to match my flowers when possible. I would accent the yellowy flowers in the pots with the yellow / orange marigolds.

I think the bushes should be trimmed just a bit so that it all looks uniformed, plus you can add more of the marigolds there with the color.

the other area, i would do the others...

Just my opinion.
