I prefer the larger size containers though and I'm trying to replace the smaller ones with larger size ones every year. I grow plants in the ground and in containers. I grow alot of plants to attract the Hummingbirds and Butterflies. Some of the plants attract birds and the many different bees too. I have containers on the front porch, at the end of our side entry driveway, on the patio and in the backyard surrounded by a couple of Lilacs. One year, I also had containers all along our front steps. Here's a photo taken last Summer on my front porch of 3 containers of Fuchsia 'Gartenmeister Bonstedt' along with a container of Coleus which I plant every year. I always have Fuchsia 'Gartenmeister' on the front porch for the Hummers every year! I'm thinking about larger container for the porch next year. This message was edited Feb 15, 2010 5:10 PM |
