Plants For Spicing Up Your Porches And Patios. Garden Advice Has A Few Ideas.

Problems with plants on the Porch or Patio? – Some patio or porch environments can be challenging for plants and one can encounter quite a few problems when placing plants in these areas. No need to get worried,  for there are still many plants that can be used that tolerate conditions presented in Porches and Patios and still add a touch of beauty and elegance to your home.
 
Plants Outside –  When having  your plants outside everything will require you to water them, particularly during the summer. Also when your plants are in containers it would be best to use  ‘shade loving’ plants that stay small. Such plants like Small Leaf  Hostas, Voilas,Coral Bells to name a few or even slow growing mini Conifers which would give good bloom can be perfect choices for one’s Porch or Patio. Lenten Roses also bloom early in the year and love shade. Get a good potting mix and water the plants in well, along with fertilizing the pot once or twice a year and your plants should do remarkably well. All the plants mentioned here are Perennials so you wont have bother about repurchasing or replanting every year.
