🌺Cool Flowers for Ugly Containers

Ken and Lisa Lain here each week to answer your garden questions!

Ah, spring cleaning in the garden! It's a great time to refresh those containers and add some vibrant color. Lenten Roses (Hellebores) are a fantastic choice for early spring blooms. And here are a few more cool-season favorites to brighten up those pots:

• Pansies and Violas: These cheerful flowers come in a rainbow of colors and can handle cooler temperatures.
• Ornamental Kale and Cabbage: Their vibrant foliage adds texture and drama to containers.
• Snapdragons: These tall beauties offer long-lasting blooms and a touch of whimsy.
• Stock: Add fragrance to the mix with these colorful, sweet-smelling flowers.

Remember to refresh the soil in your containers with some fresh potting mix. This will give your plants the nutrients they need to thrive. And if you're looking for animal-resistant options, snapdragons and stock are great choices.

Happy planting!
