Container gardening is a popular trend in the industry that allows individuals to grow plants in limited spaces and create eye-catching focal points with unique plant combinations. Container gardening is ideal for urban locations where having a traditional garden is not an option. It offers a space-saving and portable solution, allowing consumers to adapt it to any area desired. 

Container gardening offers endless possibilities for growing herbs, vegetables, and ornamental plants, whether its on a small balcony, patio, or even a windowsill.  Additionally, container gardening serves as a beneficial habitat for urban birds!

Pots and containers provide gardeners with incredible flexibility and serve as a wonderful avenue for exploring different planting techniques and designs. Whether used for temporary bedding arrangements or as a permanent home for small trees and topiaries, potting plants add an extra layer of depth to the garden. It helps to soften sharp corners, enliven dull areas and offers immediate yet effortlessly adjustable outcomes.

Container gardening offers an opportunity to showcase beautiful ornamental plants and create stunning focal points in the outdoor space. Whether you prefer vibrant flowers, cascading vines, or unique foliage, there are endless options to explore.

Some plants work well in pots all year round. For instance, try adding Geranium Mary-Anne and Kelly-Anne for abundant blooms, combined with hardy evergreen foliage plants like the Carex EverColor® series. Evergreens tend to be best for year-round pot displays, as there is always something to offer the display. Combine evergreens with long-flowering plants that flower at different times, such as Papaver orientale Red Rumble, a beautiful perennial poppy, or Rosa Cutie Pie, an easy-going miniature rose variety, to bring colour and fragrance to the patio or balcony.

If you're looking for low-maintenance options, try Euonymus varieties such as Euonymus Himalaya. The variegated foliage is a real pick-me-up all year round. For a striking display, combine it with Phlox Bambini® series: compact plants with beautiful flower clusters that require minimal care and create the most stunning displays from early summer until autumn. Coreopsis Solar is another excellent choice that produces bright-coloured flowers throughout the summer months whilst boasting resistance against heat, drought, humidity and diseases.

For those who appreciate unique foliage, Heuchera Dark Secret is known for its heavily ruffled, dark purple leaves that add depth and drama to any container arrangement. Dianthus Vivid Bright Light's vibrant pink flowers can also make a vivid addition to your outdoor space - imagine those bright pink blooms combined with Dark Secret’s dramatic purple foliage...

No matter how limited the outdoor space may be, container gardening allows endless possibilities for consumers to bring the joy of gardening right to their doorstep.
