Perennials for pots
Many gardeners grow plants in large pots as they provide colour throughout the year and can be moved around into different spots when they are at their best. Many gardeners never think to use perennials, but this collection will provide colour when planted in groups within a large pot. Ideally plant 4 different plants per pot.
