Potted plants are my favorite type of flower gardening because they are easily moved and have more options on caring for them versus the plants in the ground. These are my tried and true important summer tips for potted flowers that have kept mine alive even during 115 degree weather with zero rain for months. These are also tips I learned from trial and error since 2007 and tips I was taught when I took horticulture in college. I am excited to share them with you today!

2. Check the water twice a day.
4. Remove all spent blooms and leaves.
