Even though I enjoy gardening and spending time outdoors tending to my plants, I do like an easy life. And while I appreciate that many plants require particular soil, moisture and light conditions to survive, I welcome plants that thrive on neglect, especially those that are planted in pots on my patio.
I prefer container plants on my patio, as I can move them around when needed to create an attractive aesthetic. However, my container patio plants are often in full sun and can’t draw on moisture deep in the soil if I forget to water them or the weather is dry.
