Choose a container with open drainage holes and enough room for the existing root ball; avoid leaving the pot in standing runoff. ## Watering Container mixes can dry quickly, so check moisture regularly. When the top inch feels dry, water evenly until excess flows from the drainage holes, then allow the container to drain. Do not let the mix become waterlogged. [Illinois Extension’s container watering guidance](https://extension.illinois.edu/container-gardens/watering) explains how to check and water potted plants. ## Maintenance Remove faded flowers as needed to keep the display tidy. Recheck the mix as weather and placement change, since watering frequency depends on the container and its surroundings.
