Container Moon Garden?

| I had a wonderful little moon garden in the back of rental home for the last several years with moon flowers, nicatinia, dusty millers and other perrennials. I have just recently bought my first home where I have lots of room to garden! There is a terrace off my master bedroom that looks over a large pond and my woods. I am thinking of planting my moon garden in containers on this terrace. Any suggestions on moon plants that would work well in containers? |

| How about alyssum and white petunias? Nice fragrance for you to smell from the bedroom. Jennifer |

| Your setting sounds lovely; I'm envious, but I make the most of my little suburban lot. One thought is; what about some of the hostas that have a lot of white in them combined with some of the things you had before? You might check out the hosta forum; some folks there grow hostas in containers. Good luck, Gina |

| Don't dats and brugs do well in containers? Perhaps something to check out. My moon garden is in its earliest stages, basically a holding bed now while I finish eradicating the vinca minor (i know) and other old plantings. I was thinking about doing containers while the bed was being prepared. Ooooh how about white agastache? I have a container of it that germinated beautifully using winter sowing. Also, a kind gardener gave me some cute short stocky white alliums ( about 10-12 inches and fat) that look like nature's patio lights? What would strawflower perriott look like? perhaps white nigella? |
