Post subject: | Potted Plant Suggestions? |
Looking for plant suggestions for the following area: - location: northern suburb of Dallas, TX - two concrete pots, approx. 14" diameter, 13" tall, on front porch - mostly western exposure - very hot sun in PM! - porch is covered, i.e., no natural rainfall and shade until afternoon - filled pots are too heavy to move and have no place to give them better protection, so need some cold tolerance as well Would like a perennial, 2'-3' tall, fairly narrow, upright habit. Does not need to bloom, but would like something that looks good year-round. Any ideas? Thanks for your help! |

You might look at some of the herbs. I have some upright rosemary plants in similar conditions to what you have. They are pretty tough, tolerate some shade, and are a ready supply of culinary seasoning. It's nice to have them where you brush by them and get a fragrance bonus. |
