“ Brightly coloured , abundantly flowering pelargoniums in rustic terracotta containers and hanging baskets are a simple and cost-effective way to achieve a Mediterranean vibe at home this summer .”

POTS GALORE

This year when it comes to pots , more is more ! Use containers and pools this summer to bring your garden to life with layers of texture and colour . Plant your patio planters with colour and fill with neutral greens ; tumbling leaves look beautiful and will soften the overall look . Be eclectic with your pot choices , mix the old with the new and group similar looking pots together in groups for maximum effect . Terracotta always looks timeless in any garden , mainly when grouped together at different heights . For larger containers , consider plant combinations and go for balance ! Use the space you have and position pots along shelves , walls , or up stairs and make them a bit of a feature .
