Every lovely plant want to know How to Choose the Right Garden Planter ?
There are so many lovely plant containers and pots available for use in our gardens, on decks and porches, and indoors. How do you choose the best one? Too often we are guided by our taste alone. However, to keep your container gardens growing happily and healthily you should give some consideration to the plant’s needs when choosing a planter. Some things are common sense, like ensuring your planter has drainage holes. Here are some other things to think about:
Exposure
Will the container be exposed to the hot mid-day sun? Will it be in full sun all day? How about strong breezes? We’ve already mentioned that all pots dry out faster than soil in the garden, but certain exposures will exacerbate the situation. If you are planting in full sun, you will probably want a pot made from a material that is not porous. Terra cotta dries out very quickly. Synthetic resin pots stay cooler and retain moisture longer.
Winter
Will you be leaving the planter out through the winter? In USDA zones 7 and above, this usually won’t make a difference. Colder climates will need to choose frost-safe containers like stone, cement, and wood. Even then, most containers need some extra protection in winter.
