I was excited to start working on this spring to summer container for the front garden area. Creating a perennial plus annual planter helps keep the planter going for longer throughout the growing season in my sone 8 spring garden.

I had aphids so badly on my collard greens that I didn’t know how to get rid of them so I got rid of the whole plants 😢 now I know! Thanks!
Beautiful combination of plants ❤
Think the pots will really look good. And I enjoy the one container videos.😊
My eggplant starters that I have been hardening off already got aphids and they haven't even been outside very long!
My brother said he had starlings at his bird feeder in Virginia and the next day I had starlings at mine in Maryland.😏
Sort of like your aphid story. I have aphids inside on my asparagus fern but only on the new growth. I tried washing them away with water and using a similarl product, but for now, until I can take it outside and really clean it, I'm just cutting off the new growth.
I thought all aphids were green, but I did find some brown ones on the lemon coral sedum I'm trying to overwinter.
How much does the maiden hair fern spread? I think I'd like to get some of that.
No biggy… Birds and lady bugs will get um. May be that they fed with nitrogen a bit much at the nursery.
Get your spray "Neem Oil" – Bonide. Unlike you, all calm, I'd be cursing. A lot. Maidenhair fern looks fabulous against that container.
Aphids can be blasted with water. I would’ve just blasted them and not cut the plant.
Love the container and seeing what aphids look like.
Maybe use some insecticidal soap on it just to make sure.
Amanda, the pot looks beautiful. I'm so glad you mentioned Salvia Greggii as it is the perfect solution for an area I've been struggling with! 😍😍
Beautiful container! I love it!
As always, I'm in awe of how many plants you can get into one container. I'm usually thinking, "naw, no way she's going to get all those in," but you do and they turn out beautifully. I like the idea of incorporating planters in with your perennials to add depth to the garden. Aphids, I hate those pesky things. I get them every year on my milkweed plants and blast them off with the water hose and/or spray with Neem Oil.
Looks so pretty. If the Henry Duelburg starts looking ratty in a couple of months you can cut that pretty much to the ground and it will come back beautiful. At least that's been my experience.
I am glad I found you. A Gardner in Texas. I been watching Gardner's from out of state.thank you 👍👍👍👍😊😊
Lovely. I have a question about peony'a. Can they be put In pots?
So nice to see some early plantings starting. Looking forward to watching your gardening season again this year.
That Night in Pompeii color choice is beautiful! Your design is quite nice.
I love that and the container is such a lovely shape. ❤
Love the look of the pot! How do you water the petunia enough without drowning the succulent?
Recomand sà nu tunzi plantele musafiri pt musculițe, ele vin natural in fiecare an precumpàsàrile càlàtoare. Am experimentat anii trecuți, au apàrut in primàvara devreme apoi au plecat cu bebeluşii cu tot in stoluri inceput devarà. Spiritul plantei spune cà nu le deranjeazà, au adaptarea lor proprie.
RECOMAND bài cu turmelic o datà pe lunà pt toate plantele,beneficiul este cà nu mai revin in August septembrie pentru cuibarire in pàmànt nici pentru aceste zburàtoare timpurii dar nici altele, doar albinele si fluturii se bucurà de❤
