Ideas for Yellow sun annuals for large containers

shihtzumom Pearisburg, VA(Zone 7a) Apr 09, 2012

I want to do a couple containers with a beautiful combo I saw online. Neon Pink (they had petunia but geranimus would work) and some medium yellow flowers that flow (like millionbells maybe but larger). I thought about golden lantana but the picture I saw had more of a small single daisy flower.

I also do not have much luck with geraniums in containers - any idea why? To much water?

How about Sanvitalia procumbens Yellow Sprite or Vanilla Sprite for the yellow.

Look on the Proven Winner's website or Garden Gate magazine website..for container combinations. I send away every year for the FREE Proven Winner's idea book. You can request it by going on their website...www.provenwinners.com
