Learn how containers are as essential to planning a garden as window treatments are to decorating a room. A stone container is as attractive in a contemporary setting among concrete walls and raised beds as it is in a cottage garden with a more natural atmosphere. Look for an old urn in a garden shop and fill it with lovely trailing blooms such as petunia Surfinia, or any variety of verbena. Recycled containers are fun—what could be more charming than strawberries cascading down the side of an enameled bucket?
If you're looking to add plants to an area of your garden with difficult conditions, try one of these projects: In a sunny spot, place a glazed stoneware pot of ornamental peppers and violas or pansies. Brighten a shady place with a terra cotta container brimming with hosta.
Accentuating the beauty of any container with a variety of gorgeous plants will add joy, color, and beauty to any landscape.
