These are my pot and container plantings that I have in various places around the yard during the summer. They include everything from hanging baskets to large pots to small window boxes. I really like putting them together every year, and usually have several kinds of plants in each container. Sometimes a container might have a theme, sometimes not.
The plants I have included here were grown in containers mostly in combination with other plants. Most of them are annuals for me, so I can keep them blooming all summer. When the frost approaches and the summer is done, so are my container gardens. But they’ll be back next spring!
