Suitable flower plants for pot

Sunny areas are a boon to container gardeners; the sunshine not only helps the plants grow and thrive, the sunshine makes the colors pop.

You can group your pots by color or size or whatever is pleasing to your eye. You also should know that potted plants need daily watering. Watering the plants at night allows the plants to absorb the water, not giving it a chance to evaporate in the bright afternoon sun. Here are some sun-loving to partial-shade plants that offer lovely blooms with little care: geranium, angel's trumpet, bellflower, lobelia, candituft, celosia, marigold, nasturtium, phlox, salvia, snapdragon, sweet alyssum, petunia, balloon flower, blanket flower, bee balm, ornamental peppers, african daisy, sweet pea, verbena, vinca and zinnia.
