This weekend I’ll be headed to the nursery to select flowers for the garden. To help inspire me, I found several summer container flower garden ideas that I thought you’d enjoy too. Really, the sky’s the limit when you plant your flower pots. Just be sure to keep in mind that you’ll need to water these more faithfully than flowers planted directly in the ground.
I find choosing a color scheme is a great way to determine which flowers to use, since they all look great. Above, pink and white geraniums and tiny petunias complement each other in pale clay pots.
It’s also a good idea to coordinate the flower color with its container. Here, shades of pink dahlias look amazing in wooden blue wheelbarrows.
