PETITTI How to Make a Container Garden for the Shade

- Contrary to popular belief, there are plenty of colorful options when it comes to shade gardening. You can add beautiful foliage color with Caladium and Coleus along with the showy blooms of Begonias and the whimsical Torenia (wishbone flower), just to name a few. Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist and Education Director with Petitti Garden Centers, to see just how easy it is to make a sunning, shade-loving container garden for your outdoor spaces. One thing to remember when planting your containers is to use potting soil as well as fertilizer. Although it tends to dry out faster, potting soil is a great, well-draining soil made of peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite. It’s important to add fertilizer to this mix because potting soil doesn’t contain a lot of nutrients for your plants to feed off of throughout the growing season. Check out Osmocote® for a great, long-lasting, slow-release fertilizer option.

It's so beautiful, thank you for the tip on the tuber begonia.❤️
Great idea to add beauty in our garden 👌🏻😍lovely combination ❤️
potting soil absolutely has nutrients in it, at least most of the time...I would say to check whether your potting soil has nutrients
Beautiful!!
Pretty!
Great suggestions for the shade! Not to be critical but I wish your camera angle was closer to the pot when you plant. Thank you!
Yes, that would be great if you showed the flower's and plants up close.❤️
I'm always so suprised when I see gardening done in black pots.
Black pots get so hot even in partial sunlight. Other than that, your video is lovely.
After seeing you put one together I'm eager to try my hand at this Thanks !
Won't the coleus lose all its colors in the shade?
Many varieties of Coleus actually grow best in the shade! We recommend reading the tag on the varieties you're looking to plant to see what type of light they prefer.
