I was out picking up bulbs for the landscape expo we'll have a booth in this spring, and I was trying to decide what colors to choose. I made my selection, but I'm curious to hear other perspectives.
What are your favorite color combinations for bulbs (or single color)?
Do you get any input from color wheels, or design philosophies, or go with your instincts?

Red and Yellow for a bold harsh look
White and lavender pastel colours for a soft look
but my personal favourite is "Black" which is really dark purple:D

Red, yellows and that same dark purple dan was talking about. I also like the whites with the small amount of purble or blue in them. About how many bulbs are you going to have in the display Stone???

We'll be putting in about 100 bulbs. Small in an absolute sense, but the booth space we have is 20x20, so you tend to pack things in pretty tight.
Some of my favorite color combos are Purple and Orange, to get some pop while keeping some warmth; I also like Blue and Yellow together (provided I can get something that's supposed to be blue to actually be blue), orange and white or salmon and white is nice.
I use red a little, but only when I'm looking for something really bold for a location.
