: I live in a townhouse (No. Virginia) and am interested in what you would recommend for PERENNIAL CONTAINER GARDENING. One thing I particularly want is SOMETHING that can be planted in the urns (not very large urns) on my front porch that look nice all year round. Not necessarily ever-the-same, but not dead stems in the winter either!
Thank you very much.
MARY: You will have to use some of the evergreen shrubs if you want more than sticks in the winter.
Consider an evergreen(possibly a Juniper-come in many varieties, uprights and spreaders)and some annuals around the base for spring, summer and fall color. MVG Plant Dr.
