If you love planting summer pots, today you are in the right place! They planted mine approximately a month ago and they are growing well, so I will share the plants I get and how they take care of after a month. I have always loved to plant annual summer, but not particularly on the ground. I also love them, but they are much more work to move forward and have planters around our pool really adds to the summer environment in our backyard.

I forgot to take photos before planting everything, but this is what I bought this year. I love rose tones, so that’s what I usually do in my backyard pots. Pink only works together and combined with green tones, he is a winner! I bought VINCA ROSA, ROSED AND VERDES CALADIOS, COLEUS ROSA AND GREEN (The shortest tip sheets below), Río Rosa Diplade, a cordyline terminal In the middle and some others I will show below.
I bought 3 of each of these (mostly) since I have 3 larger pots. I have these 2 square pots and a round and they are all gray. I like to plant a higher one in the middle with shorter to the sides, as well as a spill. Have you listened to Thriller, Filler and Spiller when it comes to plant plants? It works, although I do not have a real spill in this, but when they fill, you get different heights and the Caladios extend to the sides, just like the rivers.
I also added some rose tail annuals to my smallest pots, these are portulaca and jealosia.
More link in this pot. These are easy -to -care plants and they are doing well in the sun or piece shadow and bloom all summer.
These pots are also filling! I also added a VINCA here.
It looks very well just after planting, but after it is further filled, it is even better as you will see below. You can see how paint is marking my old pots. I obtained aerosol painting to touch it for this year.
The Round Plantadora with Cordyline, Caladiums, Río and some dragged Jenny that always returns. It is a good filling for a container.
The square pots just after planting. You can see that my planters are not in excellent form. I have had these square planters for at least 10 years and when we installed the pool, I painted them with spray, but they don’t endure well, so I just bought these new Lowes gray plastic pots They are autonomous risks (they have a background compartment that contains water and does not have to water so often. Unfortunately, aerosol paint simply does not remain outdoors forever. The new ones will be great when I raised next year. I will fix myself with these for this year and I will change them both next year. Here are the planters that I ordered in case they are interested:
Lowes square gray planter – These are 20 ″ x 20 ″, which is the same size it already had.
And for the first time, Mark and I planted a container garden. He had ordered this from Amazon about 3 years ago and we could never plant it until this year. We bought Parks Whoopper, Rutgers, Big Boy and Better Boy Tomatoes, as well as Basilio and Oregano in this bed.
I have a basil on the terrace and one in the container garden since we love the basil during the summer.
You can see the patio all cleaned below. It didn’t look like this before starting and we have to wash the patio every year and everything here to clean everything. That is at least a 2 -day project. But for now, it is clean again and we are very happy to be in our backyard once more. My blue hydrangeas are very good and they bloom now. Whites in the middle bloom a little later. You can see the container garden above the fence. That is the only place where we could put it with our bowed backyard and proximity to the sun. He gets approximately 1/2 sunny day, so we hope it will be enough.
Here are the containers after a month of growth. I love how they are filling and look so lush now. We have rain a lot, so I’ve barely had to water them.
I love pink and green combo, this aspect is what attracts me every year when I choose plants and flowers. So don’t forget that you don’t have to make all flowers for a container to work. Sometimes, only colorful leaves are a great complement to flowers. That’s why I love the Caladios so much.
The only flowers I have here are Vinca and Rio. I really love cordyline this year, so I’m going to take a note to search that again. Those vivid pink leaves that leave the environment are so beautiful.
The planters surely make me happy during the summer months!
And so do these hydrangeas!
After a freezing 2 years ago, they are becoming strong. I will definitely cut some to bring inside the house.
I am so happy that we can cultivate hydrangeas here.
And the small garden of tomatoes is also growing, now we have 2 children. The fingers crossed so that we can produce more tomatoes this year.
My dad would be proud! I wish I could show you and get some tips.
Surely we hope to get our own local tomatoes this year, that would surely be good. We are always looking for tomatoes during the summer.
I also love these schools, they are a different variety of what I have obtained before and I love the shape and colors. Grandchildren in the pool last weekend.
This is how I put my planters together and this shows how well they are doing now.
They are beautiful if I say myself!
So that is a look at the backyard flowers this year. We plan to be here!
In the front courtyard, I needed to fill some bare points where we had inherited Knockout roses that obtained some kind of disease and died, so we reduced them. I added 3 of these pink and gold sparea and I hope you do well. So far, so good. There is a vine clematis on the back and Mark knocked the old metal screen on which they were uploading, so I got a New Metal Obelisk To climb and really like it. It was from Amazon.
So that is a look at how I joined my annual summer pots and enjoyed them until they fall when the first frost appears. I hope this gives you your own ideas to plant beautiful flowers every summer!
