To enhance your outdoor space, flowers and plants are a must! Classic terra cotta pots can be put anywhere to create a border around your outdoor space. New materials are being used to make pots lighter and easier to move around. Lightweight metal, PVC and plastic can be made in any size and shape, are lighter than terra cotta, and can be moved more easily. If you don't like the exterior finish you find, try rag painting or spray painting them to the color and finish of your choice.

Some new planters have an integrated watering system or a bottom water reservoir. They’re the answer if you are going to be away from home a lot and you don’t have any neighbors to water your plants.

What are you waiting for? The season is short, and if you don’t get outside, you’ll regret it later. Enjoy the outdoors in your new-found outdoor living space.
