Can anyone give me ideas on red, white & blue flowers for large pots?
I will be planting in several very large pots for downtown this summer…looking for Red White and blue that go together. Thinking of Salvia for the red…or maybe geraniums. Any other ideas? We are zone 5.
you’ve got some good starters in mind. The salvia and geraniums will give you some intense reds. The geraniums come in white as well. Don’t forget petunias, stocks (Mathiola), baby’s breath (white and beautifully scented), snapdragons, night scented stocks (these are trailing plants that will hang over the edge of the container hiding it somewhat,they are blue and spicey scented during the dark hours and quite delightful on a warm summer night), dianthus (multi red and white florets that are very showy), morning glory and lobelia can be blueish if you can find the right variety, nigella can have nice blues, phlox red and whites,linum a nice blue, monarda a beautiful deep red, veronica (speedwell) can be a great blue but you need to find a variety that isn’t too tall, dephinium another great blue but you need too find less tall varieties for pots, lastly anchusa can be a fine blue and is a border plant so would spill nicely over the sides of a container. The easy varieties to find for your project will be the whites and reds. The blue flowering plants will be the hard one. Sounds like a nice color combo tho. Good luck and have fun!
