Top Trailing Plants for Containers
Discover the best trailing plants to enhance your containers this season.
Bidens ferulifolia
For vibrant, trailing color in your containers or hanging baskets, consider Bidens ferulifolia, also known as "Tickseed" or "Apache beggar tick." Native to North America and Mexico, this plant features slender stems that trail up to 24 inches (60 cm). Its green, fern-like leaves add elegance to any setting.
From early summer to mid-autumn, Bidens ferulifolia produces an abundance of bright yellow, five-petaled flowers. After blooming, the flower heads develop bristled seedpods that attach easily to clothing or animal fur, earning it the nickname "Burr marigold."
Bacopa
Sutera cordata, commonly known as "Bacopa," is another excellent choice for trailing color. This South African native offers flowers in various hues including white, blue, pink, or purple, depending on the cultivar. One popular variety is Bacopa "Snow Flake," known for its abundant white blooms with yellow centers?"perfect for bridal baskets.
Bacopa blooms consistently from mid-spring to early winter. To achieve this, plant it in a sunny to partially shaded spot, and ensure regular watering and feeding.
Surfinia Petunias
Consider adding Petunia X hybrida "Surfinia," or trailing Petunia, to your hanging baskets. Originating from South America, this plant is related to the tobacco plant, tomato, and potato. Its colorful, velvety blooms come in shades of white, purple, red, or pink, complemented by dark green, slightly hairy leaves.
Even beginner gardeners can successfully grow this plant. Choose a sunny spot and use liquid feed every second watering to encourage rapid growth and blooming. If you're looking for variety, "Million Bells" Petunia is another great option for hanging baskets.
