THE BENEFITS OF CONTAINER GARDENING

Visit our Annuals department to see our outdoor glazed pottery department and ask a crew member for assistance to find the right pots and plants for your space. If you’re not aware of the perks of planting in pots and containers, here’s a list them, and it goes for all areas:


VERSATILE: With container gardens, the growing possibilities are endless! You can grow outdoors on a balcony, patio, or courtyard, or indoors on window sills or rooms with adequate light. With container gardens, growing is even possible on the deck of a boat, rooftop, or caravan annex!


MORE VARIETY: You can grow plants that otherwise would not be able to grow in your garden soil, as well as grow plants next to each other with different soil needs.


ACCESSIBILITY: Plant containers make gardening possible for nearly everyone, even children, people with mobility issues and seniors.


NO WEEDING: Because of their small size, it’s far less likely that weed seeds make their way into pots.


NO HEAVY GARDEN TOOLS OR EQUIPMENT: Less maintenance means less strain on both your back and wallet.


MOBILITY: Plants in pots can easily be transported to different areas of your home, either for personal preference reasons, or to move with the position of the sun.


CHANGE YOUR LOOK: Changing and swapping out plants becomes much easier, especially as each one flowers or bears fruit.


FLEXIBILITY: Plants can be arranged to match the current season or your home decor.


CONTROL SPACE INVADERS: Plants such as mint and bamboo tend to take over a garden if planted there, but are perfect for planting in pots or containers.


PORTABLE MEALS ON WHEELS: When you move, all your plants can move right along with you! This can especially benefit people who rent their home.


LESS DISEASE: On average, plants that are planted in pots or containers are less prone to disease than ones planted in a garden.


FEWER PESKY PESTS: Insects that like to go plant-hopping are less likely to discover plants on a balcony, veranda or deck. And even if they do, you can always move the pots to an area of your home that isn’t as prone to insects.


EASY TO FERTILIZE: Keeping your plants nourished is much easier when they are confined to tighter spaces. Nutrients tend to be lost or absorbed by neighboring plants when outdoors.


SAVES TIME & LABOR: Since the plants are all in the same space, watering and weeding become much easier.


NO PESKY NEIGHBORS: You won’t have to worry about pesky animals and birds eating the leaves.


CLOSE TO THE KITCHEN: If you’re growing fresh herbs and vegetables, you can place them right in your kitchen for convenience when cooking.


STREET APPEAL: Beautiful plants in the right places can really increase the appeal of your home.


INDOOR GARDENS: Ornamental plant gardens have a number of benefits for the indoor air quality of your property, as well as for the health and well-being of its occupants.
