The Perfect Mix

Container gardening is rewarding and easy, even for those with limited space and time. All you have to do is choose a container and one of Nancy Ondra's creative five-plant themes.

You might be drawn to a favorite color, like elegant white or soft blue. Or you might be looking for something just right for a sunny balcony or that shady spot on the deck. Perhaps you dream of creating a haven for hummingbirds or a banquet for butterflies, a night-blooming wonder or a fragrant container of herbs for tea. In every case, Ondra has a beautiful combination of just the right five plants for any season, situation, or taste.
