Planting Spring Annuals: SunPatiens, Sweet Potato Vine, and
Blue Ageratum
Spring is a time to plant flowers for the growing season. This year University of Memphis Director of Landscape Joellen Dimond is planting SunPatiens, Sweet Potato Vine, and Blue Ageratum. She chose these because they are the three primary colors red, yellow, and blue, which is pleasing to the eye. She shows how to clean out and prepare the bed and then how to arrange and plant each kind of plant.
This is the 17th time Joellen has planted in this bed. Follow the progress over the last 9 years:
