Container-Perfect Plants
Whether you're gardening in a small space like a balcony or windowsill, or you're looking to add color and texture to your patio, container gardening gives you a chance to grow flowers just about anywhere!
You can find a wonderful variety of Perennial Plants, Summer-Blooming Bulbs, and even Wildflowers that thrive in containers, creating a huge statement in any space, big or small.
Perfect Perennials for Containers
Perennials are the cornerstone of many gardens for their hardiness, gorgeous color and longevity. Many gardeners planting small-space gardens don’t realize that there is a multitude of perennial plants that thrive in containers, creating a gorgeous, multi-seasonal statement year after year.
- Try the shade-loving, compact Astilbe Younique Pink. The vibrant plumes are shorter than other Astilbe, making this perfect for containers.
- The shorter Peony Top Splendid delights with full, gorgeous blooms that will fill your balcony or small-space garden with fabulous fragrance.
- Violas are a popular container plant and our Viola Columbine does not disappoint, boasting a multitude of spectacular blue and white blooms.
- Gaillardia is a tough, dependable perennial that is compact, making most of our varieties perfect for containers.
