Many long-livedplants flowering , such as delphinium, bell, and gaura, are going throughfull moon floweringThe only thing left to do is plant them in pots and display them properly in combination with other flowering species. An undoubted advantage of pot gardens is their mobility, i.e. the ability to freely arrangepotsand combine plants according tosizeorcolor of flowers
Now the choice of plants is the greatest. For many winter-hardy potted perennials, the flowering period begins in June.

Not allperennialsare suitable for potting. Only the right plants should be selected. Species with not very bulky growth are the best, e.g.catnip ,bell ground coverandgeranium(e.g. variety 'Rozanne' that blooms all summer). These species can grow in pots for years without losing any of their original values value ornamental To be sure, it is always worth asking about low-growing varieties, especially when we know that the plants selected by us are included in the group of magnificent ones, such asdelphiniumanddigitalisSome even then they must be guided over the supports. However, the most important criterion for selecting plants should be the length of flowering, e.g.slopeand new varietiescarnationsbloom from June to August.
When selectingplantsit is worth paying attention to the decorative leaves. An example is the crane, in which its short and less spectacular flowering is made up by decorative leaves in a surprisingly wide range of colors. For shady stands in the pot garden, you can also recommendfunkie , whose large leaves have a color from apple green toyellow-greenAfter purchasing the plants, we should not delay planting too long (transplanting perennials into larger pots).
Thanks to this, they will be able to develop properly from the very first days of their stay in the new environment.It is best to plant each plant in a separatecontainer , they can also be planted in pairs, but in one pot they cannot grow more thanthree plantsFor the arrangement of the pot garden, use containers resistant tofrost , because perennials can overwinter in the open air.
To prevent water from accumulating in the ground, cover the drainage hole (do not block it!) With a fragment of a clay pot, then put a drainage layer on the bottom of the pot withgravelorexpanded clayThe quality of the substrate is of great importance for the proper development of plants. We advise you to use only high-quality substrates for planting. Perennials are fedonce fertilizerlong-lasting or every two weeks until mid-August with liquid fertilizer added to the water.

2. Bloodthroat blooms for weeks, luring butterflies. The substrate in which the short varieties grow must be kept at a constant, moderate level of humidity.
3. Euphorbia seguieriana, like other spurge species, can also be grown in pots.
