Planters

Using planters, free-standing boxes for growing plants and crops, can be liberating for many gardeners. Without being tied to one section of the yard, a garden is given new opportunities of expression and design.

Container gardening, the practice of growing flowers and foliage exclusively in planters and pots in lieu of planting in the ground, is a very attractive way to display the colorful fruits of labor. More importantly, growing in planters offers benefits to gardeners like less risk of soil diseases, the near elimination of weed problems and the ability to control moisture between different species.

Moreover, using planters gives the gardener versatility in placement, allowing for easy rearrangements to maximize space and aesthetic impact. Plants may be kept in separate pots within the planters so you can change your flowers with the seasons, or you can plant directly into the boxes for a more permanent display.
