March Container Gardening Recipe 2024
Unveil the Blossoming Charm of Spring
Bring the freshness of spring to your garden with our “Spring Blush” container garden recipe, a delightful assembly that captures the season’s splendor. Centered around the Cleome ‘Senorita Rosalita’ a stunning thriller with vibrant pink blossoms, this garden is a tapestry of texture and color. Complementing the Cleome, the soft, velvety foliage of the Lamb’s Ear plant adds a soothing contrast. The heart of this arrangement lies in the Confetti Garden® Hunny Bunny, a harmonious trio of Empress Flaire Lavender Blue Verbena, Aloha Kona Soft Pink Calibrachoa, and Potunia® Popcorn Petunia, serving as lush fillers that infuse varied hues and shapes. Cascading gracefully over the container’s edge is the White Bacopa, its delicate flowers creating a soft, spilling effect that completes the ensemble.
Celebrate spring’s awakening with this “Spring Blush” combo, perfect for brightening patios, balconies, or any outdoor space.
