Ideas for outdoor planting in containers and pots
Container gardens can be an exciting addition to almost any landscape design, garden, patio, courtyard, porch, or yard.
While being a space saver and necessity for many small gardens and patios, they also create an opportunity to grow exotic plants that generally won't make it through the Winter of some areas. In containers, pots, and planters, delicate plants can be moved indoors for the Winter.
