Containers

Don’t have space for a large garden? Want to bring to vegetables or herbs closer to the kitchen? Or maybe you need color to provide an inviting entryway. Consider container gardening. It's easy to rearrange your garden and add new plants and color with the mobility of containers. Container gardening also offers space for self-expression and a way to indulge your green thumb if you do have limited space. They allow you to use flowers that are not hardy for your area. It's a way to enjoy plants even in places where they could not otherwise be grown. They can serve as a transition between interior and exterior spaces, brighten a shady area and provide drama! Container gardens can evolve throughout the year and change as the season does. With a little sprucing, container gardens can keep on giving enjoyment. There isn't a right or wrong way to container gardening. Be creative and have fun. Our educational site (under development), will give you ideas on plants and tips on successful gardening in containers. As winter arrives containers can be either moved inside to bring some color into the house or empty the container and fill it with interesting branches. Some can be full of berries. Dried grasses mixed in with some twigs can also make for an interesting display. A word to the wise, if you are leaving your containers outside, be sure they can handle to cold temperatures. Check out our Chef's Helpers which make great gifts. Also, our self-watering planters assure that your plants will not dry out. If you're going to be on vacation, think about our Plant Nannies, which will continue to give your plants water as they need it while you are gone.
