Helping Your Garden Containers Thrive!



 8604---5

Caring for potted containers has it's ups and downs.  On one hand it's easier than regular gardening, weeding is minimal, no tools needed, and you can just pluck out the plant and toss when done.  But the other side is that plants in pots have special needs you should consider.

Using pots makes it easy to plant them with different kinds of materials.  One pot of cactus and succulents can sit next another pot filled with flowering azalea.  Keeping them separate help with providing each one's unique needs.  Having insects pass disease from one pot to the next is less likely when the plants are potted.  And, if that should happen you can easily move the plants apart while you control the situation.

Some pots obviously need more sun that others.  The key is choosing the right pot and plants to the correct location.  Take wind into consideration because many plants are sensitive to it.  You can create different spaces in the yard or create a outdoor room by separating areas with large potted trees and bushes.
