Annuals, perennials, bulbs, shrubs, small trees, and vines all thrive in containers, offering color, structure, and screening. Choose any style with at least one drainage hole.
Container plants need fast-draining yet moisture-retentive soil—garden soil is too dense. Use packaged potting mixes from nurseries.
Limited soil volume means more frequent watering than in-ground plants. Hot/windy weather may require daily watering (especially hanging baskets); cool weather may need only weekly. Check top 1-2 inches—water when dry. Water thoroughly until it flows from drainage holes to moisten the entire soil mass.
Frequent watering leaches nutrients. Apply liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks, or mix controlled-release fertilizer into potting mix at planting.
