Why Leave the Planting to Us?1. You get exactly the containers you want, ready when you want them
2. You get professional plant choice recommendations 3. We do all the growing so there's no waiting for the pots to fill in |
We begin accepting orders as early as mid-March. Although we can plant up your containers as late in the season as you like, bear in mind that your plant choices may be limited and the containers will take longer to fill in. Ideally, we like to have containers planted by mid-April so that they are nice and full by the time you want to place them outside (end of May-early June, depending on your plants and location.)
How it Works
- Set up an appointment by emailing or calling us.
- Bring us your clean, empty pots. (Alternatively, we can offer you new ones for purchase.)
- Decide what colors, textures, and plants you want. Let us know if there are any plants you don't want as well. (See the Factors to Consider, below)
- Choose a desired pick-up date.
- When your plants are ready, simply take home to maintain and enjoy!
Factors to Consider in Choosing Your Container Design
For maximum success, consider these factors when choosing your container plants:
- What is the exposure? (sun, part sun, part shade, or shade)
- What colors, in terms of flowers and foliage, do you like?
- How much maintenance are you willing to do? (removing spent flowers, cutting back foliage, fertilizing, aphid control etc.)
- How wide can the plants grow beyond the container? (Some plants can get as large as 4 feet wide!)
- Do you have any other special considerations?
