This successful combination uses an abundance of little flowers in hues from light pink to ruby red. With plantings nestled around a globe boxwood shrub, this colour scheme can be easily updated each season.

Tip: To make sure your planters begin growing right away, water with a micro-nutrient-rich fertilizer (like Miracle-Gro Quick Start Plant Food) after planting.
