Keeping a colorful container garden is pretty simple with a few maintenance tips.

Make sure you pick healthy plants. It’s even better if you choose a mix of flowers that have similar requirements for water and sunlight. Using a simple round pot is ideal for most plants. Choosing the right size makes for a better-looking garden. The pot should be around one-third of the size of the matured plant. If the plant stops growing then check to make sure the roots are not crowded.

Key Takeaways:

  • Container gardens let you easily maintain a garden even in a small space like a patio.
  • You should make sure that you have a good pot and buy the right soil for your plants.
  • Combine a few different flower types that you love and plant healthy plants carefully to start.

“Classic round pots with tapered sides are more practical for planting and transplanting than containers with handles, odd shapes or narrow necks.”
