in gardening •  8 years ago 


Gardening is the perfect place to express your creativity.

Creating the perfect "Container Garden" is as limiting as your imagination. If you happen to be walking through your local garden center and find a plant that strikes your fancy, that is a good place to start.

Choosing Plants

  • Pick your plants according to location: Sunny, Shady, Sun-part shade.
  • Try to keep them grouped according to moisture requirements
  • Choose different textures with colorful and complimentary combinations
  • Choose different heights, trailing, foliage and flowering
  • Provide a large enough container and with good potting soil
  • Regularly feed your plants fertilizer
  • Enjoy your creation!
