Make sure your annual flowers stay beautiful all season long by following this guide to caring for your annual flowerpots and hanging baskets!
Keep your annual flower pots and hanging baskets looking nice and fresh all season! Here are a few guidelines to follow:
Water your container every 2-3 days. In the heat of summer, you may need to water it every day.
If you want to feed your plants, use an all-purpose or bloom-boosting plant food every couple of weeks according to package instructions.
As you water, remove old blooms to encourage more blooming – a practice called deadheading. Don’t just pull off the dead petals – actually pinch off the little stem beneath the flower.
If your plants are looking spindly, pinch off the tips of the stems to stimulate them to produce more branches.
