    Can it be grown in a big pot?

    • @HorticultureGeek
      @HorticultureGeek Місяць тому

      Depending on your growing zone yes. The general rule of thumb is that a plant needs 2 zones of tolerance to survive in a container over winter. So this clematis is rated for zones 4 to 9 for in ground planting which means you need to be in a zone 6 or higher to safely leave outside in a container. Hope that helps.

    Would a larger clay pot be better for stability? Just wondering.

    • @HorticultureGeek
      @HorticultureGeek 2 місяці тому

      The stability is really based on the shape of the pot and how much bottom surface it has. If the pot is too heavy adding water would be a challenge. But a larger pot that is a good stable pot would work well. The size of the fountain can be whatever fits your space. Hope this helps.

    I've planted Supertunia's forever. Bubblegum is by far the most prolific bloomer. I usually plant my Bubblegum with Jazzberry and together they make a beautfiul arrangement. The new Saffron Finch also blooms constantly. I tried the new Hoopla this year and though it started off a bit slow, after a couple of weeks it just took off. One thing about Supertunia's is that they require quite a bit of water. No, you don't want to drown them and get root rot, but if you let them dry out where the foliage starts curling, sometimes you won't be able to bring them back to life. As strong as they appear to be, they don't like dry soil at all. Just something to be aware of.

      It’s not that type of fountain. This type of fountain is more for the appearance of flowing water and a light trickle sound. To get a loud fountain you have to have a water drop. The pump is actually perfectly sized for this fountain and it could actually accommodate a fountain spray head if more sound was wanted. However a larger base would be needed to catch the excess water slash. Thanks for watching.
