Description

Exclusive to High Country Gardens, our expertly designed Container Gardens feature a colorful, low-maintenance perennials to brighten your sunny patio, deck, or balcony. Plant in a large pot, at least 18 inches wide and 12-15 inches deep, to give the plants plenty of room. Place in a location where you can enjoy these colorful blooms up close!

The Shady Oasis Container Garden includes the following plants:

Container Garden Care:

  • Use a premium quality potting mix (NOT garden soil) to fill the container.
  • During the growing season, fertilize regularly with a fish emulsion-based liquid fertilizer at least twice monthly (at recommended rates on the bottle). Deadhead the plants as the flowers fade to keep them tidy and blooming. Water moderately once or twice per month so the soil doesn't get bone dry.
  • Winter care: Plants are hardy in zones 5-9. In colder zones, provide winter protection by moving the pots into a garage or protected space before winter freezes. Leave the plants standing over the winter and clip them back hard in mid-spring before moving the pot outdoors for the next growing season.

Plants are subject to change due to availability. Any substitutions will feature plants with similar attributes suitable to the garden design.


Planting & Care

Planting Care

Planting and Caring for Pre-Planned Gardens & Collections

Soil Preparation: Remember that proper soil preparation is the key to healthy, vigorous blooming perennials. Use Yum Yum Mix and a high quality compost at recommended rates to prepare the soil. Inoculate the plant roots with Plant Success Organicsâ„¢ Soluble Mycorrhizae Root Inoculant.

Planting: Plant according to the mature size of the plant. Don’t be tempted to put the plants too close based on their size in the pots. They’ll need the space to grow and fill in the expected area.

Fertilizing: Once annually in mid-fall, after plants begin to go dormant. Use Yum Yum Mix at recommended rates to improve the soil and provide essential plant nutrients.Use it with high quality compost, mix half and half by volume and spread on top of the soil. Scratch it in lightly and water thoroughly. It is also beneficial to treat the plant roots with Plant Success Organics™ Soluble Mycorrhizae Root Inoculant if you didn’t do so at planting time. (Inoculation only needs to be done once.)

Mulching: In arid climates mulching is very beneficial. Coarse textured composts, shredded leaves, pine needles and composted bark are all excellent mulch materials. Apply to a depth of 1-2 inches. Replenish annually (or as needed).

Thriving!

"I planted this in a dull corner of our driveway that needed to be livened up. The spot receives full morning sun, then complete shade for the better part of the day. I was quite disappointed at first in the puny ""Redbirds in a tree"" plant, the root system was much smaller than the pot it was shipped in, and there wasn't much above ground, either. But it ended up doing well and even bloomed the first year! The other plants were too busy establishing themselves to bloom (I planted a bit late), but as you can see in the attached photos, they filled out nicely and even attracted some birds! I left the pot outside to overwinter with a blanket of dried leaves, and look forward to this little garden coming back to life next spring! I watered about once a week, which is more often than the planting recommendations."
