Thanks for explaining how the Aqua Pot works. I've never known on any. Purples and greens are my favorite combinations. They glow during sunset! Looks nice!
Can you plant a lemon tree in a aqua planter? I live in Las Vegas, lemon trees and container lemon trees do great here. However, I over water or sometimes underwater my containers. I over worry doing it wrong. I love your site. Your beyond a amazing teacher. Thank you, I have learned so much from you. My daughter lives outside Boise in Middleton. I’m one day hoping to head your way and stop by your families nursery. But first I’m taking my daughter to the places where you and your mom have lunch. Wishing great blessing to your sweet family.

I have been following Jack and I am so glad for this video. I will be purchasing 3 aquapots. You explained it so nice, thank you Laura. Your arrangement came out beautiful.
Oh goodness, what a gorgeous planter. Wish I had your eye for plant combos. Love this planter it will be beautiful when it begins to grow & flushes out. Can't wait for the updates. TYFS! STAY SAFE & GOD bless.
I have two aqua pots for my back patio. I will definitely be getting one like this for the entry to my home. I love the plants you selected and the aqua pots!!
So glad you did this today because I sent you an email asking how you liked this self watering pot. I'm a new subscriber to Garden Answer (May 2020), so I didn't see your 2016 (?) Video with the inventor of the system 😀
After watching you lift the pot onto the porch, I was thinking you could really use a stair dolly. They have 6 wheels which rotate to go up and down any steps. The one we use at work is rated to 500lbs. They really come in handy!
Amazing pot and plant selection for color and texture combination. Laura does such a wonderful job promoting Proven Winners' products. Her personality and presentation style is so compelling.
Visit our website and use the Find a Retailer tab to locate stores in your area that carry our plants, these should all be available in Canada, it will depend on what you preferred store has ordered...we do not decide the availability for any garden center. Thanks for watching!
Love the pot you used, think I should check those out before I started planting up pots to go beside my front for. Love your choice of plants, beautiful tones and contrasting foliage. 😍
I have 2 aqua pots from last year and live in Houston, TX. filled these weekly with water and they did great all season. Hoping for more design options this year.
Keep watching, we expect more to be in stock soon. Also look on our website via the Find A Retailer tab to find stores in your are who carry our AquaPots.
I also live in Houston and I bought a very large aqua pot last summer. I put it in a place where I wanted a rose bush but the soil is terrible. I filled it about once a week. The rose bush is beautiful and it's about the only thing that survived the big freeze last week!
@@mariafolch8067 Maria, we do not because they would not work in any other containers. With AquaPots the insert sits on a small rim on the inside of the pot, the two pieces are a unit that can only work together. Thanks for asking.
Oh my goodness absolutely fell in love with this arrangement the textures and colors are diverse and so beautiful together. Will the violas last all through your summer? Coming from Albuquerque NM and our climates are very similar.
Beautiful. You will need to remove the plants and empty the reservoir before freezing temperatures hit...either that or move it into a warm space to overwinter.
This page on our website answers this question, there is an overflow valve, so there is no worry of ever overwatering... www.provenwinners.com/aquapots
Looking over your shoulder as you're planting, are those salvia's blooming behind you? Are those dug out of the garden to overwinter and they're flowering again because it's warm in there? Or are they new ones and if they are new, what will their bloom cycle be like when you plant them out this year if they're blooming right now?
i do real good starting seeds, but absolutely drop the ball fertilizing. my stuff is organized, but no one place to put everything together, so i tend to forget the fertilizers since they are in a different place.
I'm not sure where I got my crested fern but it's been a stellar performer! Mine does have deeper roots than other ferns but it's overwintered in a big pot in N. Georgia for several years. Cyclamen would be pretty in that mix too, set high to prevent rot.
Love the combination, isn't it a little early for the spring plants? Jack Frost is still alive and well in NE KS and you are farther north still. Unless this was going inside your sun porch. Confused. I find myself doing a walk though at the garden center here just to see a bit of color and green. Thanks for posting and looking forward to the next one.
How will you know when it is time to fill the reservoir again. We are gone to the camper quite a bit in the summer and am thinking these pots would be great with my watering problems.
Depending on several variables, you can go anywhere from a week to three weeks without adding water to the container, this page has more information for you, www.provenwinners.com/aquapots
Hi Laura I absolutely love that pot do you think you could grow A little vegetable garden in that? I have a very small space and I want to grow some vegetables this year do you think that would work and which vegetables do you think would work best in it. thank you love you guys
Hi there Linda, Laura does not answer the questions on our RUclips channel, but yes, you could plant a few veggies in that, perhaps something like our Amazel Basil and Goodhearted tomato plants, or a green pepper plant? Keep in mind you want to use the plants that will stay on the shorter side, here is a link to basic information and another link to a few containers we have done like this, beauty.provenwinners.com/proven-harvest/ and www.provenwinners.com/container-gardening/container-recipes/search?keys=basil&field_seasons_value_many_to_one=All&field_combination_style_nid=All&field_pot_size_value_op=%3D&field_pot_size_value%5Bvalue%5D=&field_pot_size_value%5Bmin%5D=&field_pot_size_value%5Bmax%5D=&field_color_scheme_type_nid=All&field_light_level_nid=All&field_plant_genus_nid=All&field_plant_series_nid=All&title=
Beautiful combination of plants. Nice pot! Can it be left out all winter in cold climates? I don’t like to have to dismantle my pots. I don’t have storage space for them.
Are you past your last frost? Can you start planting these plants outside even if there's a chance of cold snaps still to come? I'm in the opposite corner of the country (Atlanta, GA) but trying to determine when to get started with plants this year.
Lovely.. 💕💕💕 even though you have been given the all clear, that one was a little much even without the water.....just take it lovingly from a great grandmother who has done similar things in the past....and learned bro regret "some" things physically.....do you and Aaron have a dolly that it could have slider onto and Aaron pull it up the steps one at a time with you just making sure it stayed balanced on the dolly......or plant it up on the porch? Women's innards are not like men's, but you can also get a hernia or two
I assume this video is entirely sponsored by Proven Winners? I know how much you like all your concrete pots so this is kind of weird. I do love the plant combination for sure and will look fore those this year in my garden center. Thank you
As needed, this depends on many factors, the size of the container, the temperature outside...the good thing is you can never overfill it since it does have a small overflow valve. The typical refill can be from 2-3 weeks, this page will tell you more, www.provenwinners.com/aquapots
Apparently the deer ate all my hostas over the fall and winter. Any PW recommendations? Also I love the PW bubblegum and white Super petunias. Is there a red?
We do have a Supertunia Red, but with the hostas, and all other plants the deer and rabbits might munch on, personal experience leads me to recommend Plantskydd spray. It is not topical, it is systemic, meaning it does not wash off. It actually changes the taste of the plant. Apply at the signs of new growth in the spring. So with a hosta it would be the shoots, taller shoots, new leaves, full leaves, etc. And once the plant is flushed out you might need to come back to spray once every month. I have found the spray to be more effective than the granules. A bit gross, but totally organic.
@@ProvenWinnersRUclips is there a particular name for the red supertunias? I will look for them. The bubblegum was gorgeous last summer. I had many compliments which I should pass on to you since it was your RUclips video that I watched, so Big Thanks! I will try to locate the stuff for Hosta’s.

One of the best things about this system is you can mix in some water soluble plant food in the AquaPot so the plants are getting a continuous amount of food. But yes, the plants still need 'fed' with consistent watering.
I love the grouping, it would be beautiful in my partially wooded back yard! Can't wait for nurseries to get plants in, trees are in so won't be long for perennials. 👏👏😁👍👍💕💕
the pot costs $200. I figure the plants would run me around $50-$100. Add in the cost of a bag of soil and fertilizer, if you don't have any on hand; this one pot is certainly not applicable to the average home gardener!
Thank you Laura and Proven Winners....this is one of my favorite of Laura's container plantings.
Beautiful pots , beautiful plants , beautiful Laura

Really appreciate how honest and genuine you were about the whole experience 👍
The aquapod is very beautiful I love the combination of the flowers and the colour is beautiful
This is absolutely gorgeous! I hope I can get the exact combination to use on my front porch as well. What a stunning welcoming display! Thank you!

This is a great mix of plants.
So beautiful colours so lovely flowers & I love the pot 😊😃.
Thank you for sharing this video so beautiful and wonderful flowers 😃
Love the hosta and the fern!
I could swear you planted some of that crested fern under the tree along the sidewalk beside your house last year. Beautiful combination.
Very attractive arrangement.
Love all the plants you chose💜. The fern is gorgeous 💜💜💜
Love the purple vibe of plants very interesting with the green hosta in a container situation! Very nice. TY love it!
Beautiful combo and container. I'm always impressed by what you do. Thanks as always and I'm so looking forward to spring and planting and Aqua pots!

Beautiful arrangement as always
Lovely! I think I would add a trailing plant as well. Love the colors!!!
Love Laura from Garden Answer and I really liked this combo of plants in the aquapot! Beautiful!

That’s beautiful! those blooms have the prettiest perfume scent from the hostas! God bless.

Gorgeous! Love that fern!
Wow absolutely beautiful combination! I am copying this recipe! And ordering that aqua pot! Thank you
Very pretty
Please be with me
Beautiful!
Beautiful combo Laura! I’m going to copy you.😉
Cut the hosta bloom?!?! Scandalous!! 😆. We love our hosta blooms in zone9.

Ma'am
I agree it looks beautiful!
Great video. So excited for spring!
The Aqua Pot is beautiful but terribly expensive: website says $209! The perennial arrangement looks stunning, as usual. Thanks Laura!
That is a beautiful combination😊❣️🥰
Love the fern. I'm going to look for one of those.
Love the whole thing! You make it look so easy!
A beautiful combination!
Oh my goodness absolutely fell in love with this arrangement the textures and colors are diverse and so beautiful together. Will the violas last all through your summer? Coming from Albuquerque NM and our climates are very similar.
No, the violas will only enjoy cool weather, they will not look very good one the heat sets in.
Beautiful combination!
I love hostras I live in Switzerland and they grow here with no problems
Perfect! I will be making that combo! Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful. You will need to remove the plants and empty the reservoir before freezing temperatures hit...either that or move it into a warm space to overwinter.
stunning

Gorgeous combination, that fern would look good in my garden around my hydrangeas. Will be looking for some this year.
Absolutly beautiful combination of texture and colour. Research is so easy with you. You’re the best.
I'm not sure where I got my crested fern but it's been a stellar performer! Mine does have deeper roots than other ferns but it's overwintered in a big pot in N. Georgia for several years.
Cyclamen would be pretty in that mix too, set high to prevent rot.
Do you add the two scoops of fertilizer every time you fill the reservoir?
So you left the label on the disc?
Can you time how long before the over flow spills. 😊You just addressed the solution! Thanks!
i thought you had planted that crested fern last year? i remember because after you put them in i went out and got a few ??
Motivates me to up my container game!
Love the color combination. I am definitely interested in what you think of the self watering after a few months use.

We have people watching our video from Florida up to Canada, hoping to inspire everyone for when spring arrives in their area.
I am always nervous about so many (big) plants in one pot. Is this number of plants what makes it look gorgeous in a few weeks?
Keep in mind this is a short term planting, with the goal to move the perennials to the landscape when the ground is warm enough.
How will you know when it is time to fill the reservoir again. We are gone to the camper quite a bit in the summer and am thinking these pots would be great with my watering problems.
