Expert Tips for Creative Containers
Containers Container gardening is a great way to combine your favorite plants, colors, and textures. But why stop with just one pot?

Here are some secrets from award-winning garden designer P. Allen Smith on how to spice up your garden by clustering your containers:

Choose the right number. Groups of containers tend to look better when clustered in odd numbers, but in some cases, a pair of stately pots at an entrance is all you need.

Consider your setting. Think about where containers will be displayed. Choose ones that complement the colors and style in the setting.

Unify the collection. Clusters of containers look best when pots share a similar style but have different diameters and heights.
