What are low maintenance outdoor potted plants all year evergreen?
A few of our favourite low maintenance plants include Buxus Balls, Cordylines, Eucalyptus, Fatsia Caster Oil, Ornamental Grasses and Palms and each of these plants are hardy and evergreen meaning you will have all year round structure within your garden displays. These include hardy evergreen foliage plants like yucca, English ivy, variegated euonymus and heuchera, and flowering plants like Skimmia japonica and hebes. Evergreens tend to be best for year-round pot displays as they are always in leaf and therefore always have something to offer the display.
What can I plant in pots in October?
There are even herbaceous perennials that will look great in containers in autumn and winter – either from their foliage or their autumnal flowers. Go for the following: Heuchera, Hylotelephium (sedums), Japanese anemones, Liriope muscari, Persicaria (red bistort) and Symphyotrichum (asters, Michaelmas daisies). A great way to extend the life of your autumn planter is to choose perennials that can be transplanted into your garden after the season ends. Plants like sedums, heucheras, and ferns can be enjoyed in containers through the autumn and then moved into garden beds to grow for years to come.
