Product Information

Analogous - consists of two, three or four colors that are neighbors on the color wheel, such as blue-green, blue, blue-violet and violet. This will create a mood that is peaceful and gentle. That said, if you cannot stand the thought of losing it, don’t put it out front! Been there, done that.

There is no rule about which plants are for containers and which are not. As long as you provide the basic needs for plants - enough room for its roots, water, nutrients and sun or shade - any plant will work in a container. So be creative! Plant what you like. And remember, your local nursery will help you with what plants will thrive in your area. We can put all sorts of creative decor, plants, garden art, and furnishings out, but, if thieves are going to remove them, it’s not worth it. Shape or Form is the habit of a particular plant. Is it round, conical, weeping or trailing, upright or spreading? It is the shape and habit that help you create a strong framework for your planting. In any garden - and the container garden is no exception - you need a focal point. An upright plant will give you vertical interest and your eye will be drawn to it first. Trailing plants off the edge of your planter will soften the edges and create a more finished look.Now you need to think about water and fertilizer. It is good to mix a slow-release fertilizer into your soil. Osmocote is a well-known slow release fertilizer. We also offer the Algoflash Basacote 6-month slow release fertilizer as well as AlgoPlus liquid fertilizers to keep your planting going throughout the season.

Masonry:Same as on wood siding, but make the holes in the masonry with a masonry drill bit, large enough to install plastic or lead anchors for masonry bolts. Texture of plants is divided into three categories: fine, medium and course. Textural contrast can be even more effective than color contrast. Plants that are described as fine in texture are those that are quite soft and easy on the eye, often having many delicate flowers such as lobelia or baby's breath. Medium-textured plants tend to have some distinct shape such as geraniums or flowering tobacco. Coarse plants are those with very distinct textures such as ornamental cabbages or large begonias. When all the plants are in place, fill in around them with potting mix and water thoroughly to help settle the mix around the roots.So, keep this in mind when making choices. It’s not always possible to stop it but super heavy items and affixing things in place can slow down the bad guys. Polychromatic - includes colors from all around the color wheel using green foliage as a harmonizer. Designers generally use one of four color schemes: analogous, complementary, monochromatic or polychromatic. On a brighter note, it’s fun to make the front garden welcoming. And neighbors tend to like it because it adds to the overall curb appeal. Create a bold display by combining trailing blues and yellow with columnar spires and feathery foliage. Use your accent plants in the center with complementary plants surrounding it and trailing herbs or lobelias softening your edges.
