Container Gardens are a fantastic way to add highlights of color throughout your outdoor living space. Just remember that these pots, containers and planters need a little bit different care than flowers you have planted in flower beds.

• Mix time release feed into soil as you plant.
• Water with liquid plant food at least every 2 weeks; more if you are using petunia and other heavy feeders
• Prune when plants start to look weedy
• Remove dead flowers to speed up new flowering
• Soil mix should contain peat moss to better hold water
• Water deeply – big drinks less often are much better for the plants than frequent light sprinkles.
