Fill Container 3/4 full of potting soil. Remove Ageratum Artist & Lantana plants from their containers, scoop back soil and place both 3″ apart in the middle so that the base of the plants will be 1/2″ below the rim of the planter. Place 3 Purslane Samba plants in a triangular formation around the Ageratum and Lantana. Firm up around plants with potting soil. Fill in between Purslane Samba with Phlox. Put remaining potting soil around plants and level the surface. Mix Linder’s ProThrive Fertilizer with water and thoroughly water plants. Place basket in a sunny location, water daily, fertilize weekly and enjoy!
