Hummingbird Container Garden

This collection is specifically curated for an 18-inch diameter pot. Ensure your container is at least 12 to 15 inches deep to provide enough room for the root systems of all six perennials to thrive.

These perennials are hardy in USDA zones 5 through 9. If you live in a colder climate, you may need to move the container to a sheltered area or garage during the winter months to protect the roots.

These plants thrive in full sun, which means they need at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. Placing them on a sunny patio, deck, or balcony is ideal for optimal blooming.

Yes, these plants prefer well-drained, sandy soil. Use a high-quality potting mix designed for containers and consider adding a bit of perlite or grit to ensure excellent drainage, as these plants do not like to sit in soggy soil.

While these plants are drought-tolerant once established, container gardens dry out faster than in-ground beds. Check the soil moisture regularly and water manually whenever the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.

The collection is designed to provide continuous blooms from late spring through early fall. Because the kit includes a variety of perennials, you will see staggered flowering times that keep the display colorful for months.
