Come along as we install containers at three commercial properties. I love that my work takes me from epic estates to city apartments. Today we visit three urban apartments whose management company loves to treat them to seasonal florals. We will plant in shade, part shade and full sun conditions… marrying them all together with vibrant hues that are sure to make everyone smile.
Hope you all have a fabulous day!
Kate

Keep these container videos coming! I know I am so influenced by other RU-vid gardeners pushing PW annuals that I am so unaware of so many cool & unique annuals and ways to combine them. I am definitely using your trick of cutting out a piece of paper to mirror my container and take it to the garden center to build a beautiful shade container.

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Will do! 😆 And I love PW annuals and definitely use my fair share, but this world is also a big wide open wonder! There are so many goodies to be had.

@MaggiefromChicago 5 месяцев назад

YES!!! Absolutely agree with @RoGardens' comment! 100%!!! And yes, the trick with a piece of paper to mirror container size is brilliant! Thanks @HelloGarden!

This was just the kind of thing I was hoping to see from you!😊 Would love to see more of your work ❤️ Also would like to see updates of these spaces later in the season 🎉 Happy gardening!🌿

That’s the goal! I always want to be considerate of my clients’ privacy though… so sadly I can’t take you all everywhere. 🌱

Loved seeing your day in the life of a designer...so cool. Those pots will brighten their environments beautifully.

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Isn’t it so cool that a property management company invests in seasonal containers?!? I feel like it’s such a gift.

@alcg3981 5 месяцев назад

I love the stories you tell about the plants😊. Having conversations with each other 😅. I can totally imagine the spiller saying to the coleus that may hog space in a few months, 'ya bug me, I'm going to jump over the side where theres much more space'.😂😂

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Right?! I feel like there’s always a whole world of conversation we never hear. 💕

More containers please! These are so helpful, containers can go anywhere no matter the size of your garden, and not all of us can afford to fill a garden with perennials except over many years. Love love these videos!🎉

I use some large containers in my gardens because of tree root competition. Some great ideas here for me!

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

This is SUCH a great point. So many of us have such extensive tree roots that containers are the only way to plant. So glad it inspired you!

@soniewhitten4844 5 месяцев назад

Container gardening is my favorite. It's like a mini landscape! I'm off to the store to see if they have the annuals I've been planning for mine. I just received an order of perennials (Christmas in May!) and had to place them where I think I had intended (it's been a while). Now if only the weather would give me grace so I can get them in the ground. (Though I'm grateful for the rain.)

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

That’s exactly what I say!!! Totally mini-landscapes. 🌱

@jenmazz1257 5 месяцев назад

Just discovered your channel. I live in Toronto 🇨🇦 but ironically my favourite NFL team is the Seattle Seahawks 😂 & I’ve been several times to the city! Love what you do with the containers!! ❤🌺🪴

@griselnunez4274 5 месяцев назад

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much. I have to say that I love that my work brings me from incredible estates to the urban streets of Seattle. Flowers for all!!!

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

@juliamorrisey5541 5 месяцев назад

Will the flowers spread enough in the raised beds to get to the edge of the brick to fill in all those spaces? I have 2 window boxes in deep shade and due to the size of the boxes I have some challenges planting them. The Impatiens look like they would add color.

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

This is a GREAT question. With care? Absolutely. But also so much depends on the gardener. They say 10”x10”, but I’ve definitely had them grow bigger and smaller.

How often do u change out the majority of the soil in your pots. I like the idea of using compost etc in the pots

@HelloGarden 4 месяца назад

So I actually only ever fully change a pot if it is excessively rootbound or I have a fungal disease in the soil. Other than that, it’s usually just the top 6-12” when I change the container each season.

@lisamccullough224 5 месяцев назад

Would love to see an update on these containers when they have filled in and the plants are blooming.

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Yes! I’ll try to show some updates as I go. I have a dozen around my house that I’ll showcase updates on as well.

I know this might be a stupid question but what location do you live I see you in a coat and hat as if your cold and all those beautiful flowers blooming

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Great question! I’m in Seattle and I do run a bit cold naturally. The morning was cold and overcast and I knew I’d be in chillier shade conditions so I dressed warmly. By afternoon it was sunglasses and t-shirt weather! This is spring in Seattle. 🤣

@joannbishop892 5 месяцев назад

I’m curious as to why you put a heliotrope in a full shade situation.

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Great question! I trialed it in several “bright shade” conditions and it worked really well! It lives wet feet too so that helps. I get BOLD when I know how a plant behaves in certain microclimates.

@lauriesickles5393 5 месяцев назад

I notice you put choleus in each pot. Aren't they notorious for getting rather large? I would think they will take over the pots.

@HelloGarden 5 месяцев назад

Great question! Coleus, like many plants, come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Some trail, some only get a foot tall, others are monsters at 2+ feet. I also tend to know which pots will see the most growth based on location and exposure. You may have different conditions and experience. So many little details. But I also love my plants to touch. I want it to feel like a voluminous single arrangement.
