Late July Container Garden Tour, Minnesota Zone 5a Patio Garden

[@nicholasryan5401]

Beautiful plant selections and containers, they are the bees knees. We have four flowerbeds, fifty two containers of perennials in the front garden and six containers of African daisies on the front windowsills. My wife has no interest in gardening and tells me it looks like a mini garden centre. I feed the containers once a week with tomato feed and use a watering can to water them. I mulch the flowerbeds in spring with homemade compost and add a handful of fish blood and bone to each plant. We have had a rainy summer so far this year and I have only had to water the flowerbeds with a watering can three times this summer.

Sounds like you have a beautiful garden! Do your perennials live year round in the containers or do you plant them in the ground?

[@nicholasryan5401]

@@laurelrosegardens6454 My perennials stay in there containers all year, I don't have room for them in the flowerbeds.

I've really incorporated coleus if all types into my containers

[@laurelrosegardens6454]

I love love love coleus! Really all foliage plants in general because the are never without color. 😊

[@nickwing6194]

Do you have any Boston ferns or kimberly ferns? Any ferns or spider plants? Can you do a video of your water hoses spliters gardening equipment? Video of your routine for watering and fertilizing your garden? Etc

[@laurelrosegardens6454]

I don't have any Boston or Kimberly Ferns. I used to have some Boston Ferns that I would overwinter as houseplants but they got too messy indoors. I've been wanting to do a statement fern in my shade containers again so maybe next year!

[@nickwing6194]

Watering cans like what it takes to keep everything watered video

[@laurelrosegardens6454]

I will be posting a quick tour where I talk about my fertilizing routine a bit more and show what I use. Plus at your suggestion I added on a little segment to show my hoses and connections. 😊 Stay tuned, it should go up soon!
