Garden Plant Pots
Everybody would love to have a beautiful garden – flowers, shrubs, a garden can be a place to relax on your days off, or just to sit after work in nice calming surroundings.
The main problem with a garden is that it takes time to maintain. In today’s modern lifestyle – not everyone has time to work on their gardens. In some instances, even grass can be too much hassle, and the whole area can be concreted over – Saving you loads of time, but instantly losing you your natural sanctuary.
Garden plant pots are a great way to own your own micro controlled garden. There is a wide range of plant pots, a variety of sizes, colors, and materials available.
Plant pots are a great way to still have flowers / plants / greenery in your garden, even if any of the following are true:
- Yard concreted over.
- Clay or bad soil – making it impossible to grow plants.
- In an area which is too hot – making it too costly to water a whole garden.
These Garden plant pots allow you to grow plants were it would be otherwise impossible (for whatever reason). Depending on the pots, you really can still have a beautiful garden.

Painted Indoor Plant Pots
August 17th, 2010
My friend’s birthday is fast approaching and I would love to buy her a hand painted indoor plant pot – I would really like it if I could do it myself, as I know this would mean more to her, and it is much more personal. I enjoy painting and have some designs already in mind. What paints or colors will look bright, and not fade in sunlight or will not run in the rain?
Answer:
Wow, that is a very nice idea! I’m sure your friend will love it. The best paints to use would be acrylic paints – these have rich vibrant colors, and are easy to apply and inexpensive. Make sure you have an area covered with a sheet to protect work surfaces. Invest in some cheap brushes to do your designs – these can then just be thrown away (as acrylic is very hard to remove from brushes). After you have finished your design – spray the pot in clear spray lacquer to make the pot waterproof. We would love to see a picture of you pot when it’s done – please send it in. Kind Regards.

June 20th, 2010
What are some nice flowers for mothers day that are not too expensive – but look as nice as roses?
Answer:
Hi Amy! Instead of buying your mom a bunch of flowers which will wilt and die (Maybe even after only a day in hot weather) – why not get her some potted live flowers! Even a nice hanging basket. Depending on the flowers – these can last for years, and will look great. You could either buy a basket and add your own small flowers, or buy a ready made basket. – We will add a list of nice hanging basket flowers soon.
Also – if you really like roses, concider a mini rose tree – these are inexpensive, and will once again give your mom a garden plant that will last.

Can You Grow Sunflowers In Plant Pots?
January 21st, 2010
Living in a small flat, i do not have a garden, but really like sunflowers – i’m thinking of buying a large pot, and trying to grow them. I have no idea if this will work – or any real details, such as how tall will they get? Or once they flower, do they come back each year? or do they die? Can you even grow sunflowers indoors?
Thanks for your help!
Answer:
Hi, thanks for your question – you can grow sunflowers in pots! AND you can grow them indoors you will be please to know 
First, do some research into the type of sun flowers you want – they come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. Some are TALL some are shorter (which may be better for your indoor pots)
You will need a very sunny spot for your flowers – naturally, sunflowers grow facing east, so if you can match that, it will be much better.
Buy some good quality soil, and water regularly. Your flowers will not grow as large as the outdoor sunflowers, but they will still look great.
Thanks for the question!
