Stars and Stripes planter — red geranium, blue salvia, white alyssum
🇺🇸  Combo 1

Stars & Stripes

The classic patriotic pot — bold red geranium, deep blue salvia spikes & a honey-scented white alyssum skirt

☀️ Light Full Sun / Part Shade
|
💧 Water Moderate
|
🌸 Blooms Spring – Fall

Your Planting Recipe

Thriller
Geranium (Pelargonium)
Dynamo Red
Vivid upright scarlet clusters — the bold centerpiece
Filler
Salvia farinacea
Victoria Blue
Deep blue-purple wand-like spikes; heat- & drought-tolerant
Spiller
Sweet Alyssum
Wonderland White
Honey-scented cascading mat that softens the pot’s edge
Gardener’s Notes

Both the Geranium and Salvia are proven heat-tolerant performers that bloom reliably from spring through hard frost.

Seasonal Tip: Trim the Alyssum back by half during the July heat to encourage a fresh flush of white blooms. This combination peaks beautifully for Independence Day.

Wave of Freedom — red, white and blue petunia cascade
🇺🇸  Combo 2

Wave of Freedom

An all-petunia waterfall of red, white & blue — effortless & spectacular in a hanging basket or tall urn

☀️ Light Full Sun
|
💧 Water Moderate
|
🌸 Blooms Summer – Fall

Your Planting Recipe

Thriller
Petunia
Easy Wave Red
Bold red self-cleaning trailing petunia; spreads up to 3 ft
Filler
Petunia
Easy Wave White
Crisp white — the classic contrast layer between red & blue
Spiller
Petunia
Easy Wave Blue
Soft periwinkle-blue cascade — trails and intermingles beautifully
Gardener’s Notes

This is the most foolproof patriotic planter available — all three plants are Easy Wave Petunias, so they will weave together naturally into a seamless flag-colored tapestry with no guesswork on care.

Seasonal Tip: Fertilize weekly with a bloom-booster formula and these petunias will spread up to three feet wide. Superb for large hanging baskets, tall urns, or window boxes where their trailing habit can shine.

Shady Parade — red N Guinea impatiens, white impatiens, blue lobelia
🇺🇸  Combo 3

Shady Parade

Patriotic colors for shaded spots — ideal for covered porches, north-facing entrances & dappled garden corners

🌥️ Light Part Shade / Full Shade
|
💧 Water Moderate – Moist
|
🌸 Blooms Summer – Fall

Your Planting Recipe

Thriller
New Guinea Impatiens
Red
Large, bold red blooms; modern disease-resistant variety
Filler
Impatiens Beacon
White
Non-stop white blooms; glows luminously at dusk and in shade
Spiller
Lobelia
Regatta Marine Blue
Delicate cascading blue flowers; softens the pot’s edge gracefully
Gardener’s Notes

A patriotic solution for the shaded corners of your porch or garden that full-sun combinations simply cannot serve. The new N. Guinea Impatiens varieties are disease-resistant, addressing the downy mildew problems of older impatiens lines. All three plants share the same woodland-edge care profile — keep soil consistently moist and they will reward you all season.

Seasonal Tip: Lobelia performs best in the cooler weeks of summer. If it begins to fade in August heat, simply replace it with additional white Impatiens to maintain the patriotic palette through fall.
