DIGGPhoto 1 - Pot was planted in late May and this is how it appeared in mid-August. Plants include caladium (toward the end of one bulb), coleus (I had propagated from clipping), Angelonia (2), verbena (2).
Photo 2 - Planted in late May, photo taken in mid-August. Caladium (two bulbs), impatiens (3 small plants).
The two pots are together on left side of the front porch -- two similar pots are on the the right side.
These pots get brief morning sun and intermittent afternoon sun, but are mostly in the shade.
Location is Richmond, Virginia - zone 7.
