The types of flowers you put in your planters depend on the climate for your area as well as the amount of sunlight that particular spot gets throughout the day. You also have to decide how high or low maintenance you would like the plants to be. One of the easiest plants to take care of are hibiscus, especially if you live in a warm climate or you get quite a bit of sun throughout the year. The bright colors add a vibrant touch to your garden decorations with the tropical species coming in shades of red, pink, yellow, orange, purple, lavender-blue, white, and bicolor.

Hibiscus grow well when planted in containers, which makes them a perfect plant to add to your wrap-around deck planter. They add bright and bold colors to your front porch or backyard patio, making it look inviting and warm for friends and family. They are great accent pieces for your garden decorations.

Tips for Growing Hibiscus:

  • Place them in an area where they can get 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight.
  • They need plenty of water, and the internal reservoir of the wrap-around deck planters helps to keep them hydrated.
  • General fertilizer works fine for hibiscus plants.
  • They can grow anywhere from 2 to 15 feet, depending on the conditions and the species.

Your garden decor doesn’t all have to be outside, though. Hibiscus can grow inside as well, as long as it is in a spot with plenty of sunlight. And if you love to have your garden decor inside as well as outside, houseplants like the ones from Costa Farms are perfect for adding a beautiful touch to your indoor garden.
