    Creating containers is one of my favorite things to do in the garden. At one time, I even considered making it a business as you do. I'm curious if you handle the maintenance for your clients.
    Now in my mid 60s, that's no longer a dream of mine, but I did enjoy working for my BFF about 15 years ago when she had a shop. She gave me free reign to design containers.
    Thank you for many inspirational recipes.
    Now, garden centers, let's see some annuals! (I'm in Minneapolis.)

    • @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn
      @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn  2 місяці тому

      That’s so awesome! I only do them very part time. I gave up a bunch of clients a few years ago as it was getting to be too much. My mum got ill and between my real job, my mum and my own garden and pots it was too much. I kept my favorite clients and now really enjoy it much more. I do not maintain the containers and I do have 1 employee (my sister) which helps too! Thanks so much for being here!!

    Very beautiful color combinations! It's nice seeing different colors put together that aren't necessarily typically put together. I know I tend to fall into the same combos because they are my favorite, but it's good to step out of the usual here and there!
    Peachy Keen verbena is one of my favorites! I used it with evolvulus (cobalt blue) one year, it was a beautiful combo. Down the same vein as peach/purple, but a little different.

    Greetings from Ireland, Great Ideas, I have a small front garden with four flowerbeds, Fifty two pots of perennials and six pots of annuals on the windowsills. My wife has no interest in gardening and she tells me that it looks like a mini garden centre. This year I planted the six windowsill pots with African daisies that I grew from seed. These pots are not that big, but big enough for African daisies.

      Thank you so much. I use liquid fence, which is a liquid you mixup and spray on things you don’t want rabbit or deer to eat. If it rains, you need to reapply it and you do need to reapply it every 10 days or so regardless of rain. 😊

    about caladiums: All caladiums love filtered sunlight and shade. Some newer selections and caladiums with narrower leaves can take more light, but it's best to limit direct sun exposure to the morning hours. The colorful foliage can fade in bright sunlight

    Hi, I haven't ever seen Beth's Blue Isotoma but it's beautiful. I am figuring you don't live in the southern part of the USA? I do containers every year (lots of them) on my concrete pool deck, but the back yard faces east and has trees all around so it's full sun maybe 4-6 hours with no a
    late afternoon sun. I use alot of salvias for the tall plants like Wendy's Wish, Black and Bloom and Unplugged Pink (what I am trying alot this year). Does the Beth's Blue bloom in heat and humidity? I also windered if the planter you have in front of the store was only getting half day sun? Thanks.

    I have such a hard time finding the right combination for my large pots near my front steps. It faces west so has shade unil early afternoon and then hot late afternoon sun. The shade plants fry in the afternoon and more sun loving plants never get very full due to so much shade during the day 🤔

      Look for part sun plants. Those large green planters in the beginning of my video are against my house and also face West Southwest. So they get morning shade and then the same hot afternoon sun like literally until the sun goes down. I find that part sun to full sun plants do Best and I keep them well hydrated.
