To add colour to your plants, you can choose from a variety of pot types. Plastic pots are often used for cacti, succulents and air plants as they don’t need much water. Ceramic pots are ideal for small flowers such as petunias or geraniums. Terracotta is perfect for shrubs and bushes because it mulches the roots well and keeps them moist longer. Wooden containers can be made from different kinds of wood such as cedar or redwood which can help keep moisture in without having to keep watering too often; additionally, these styles may require less frequent watering than those made with plastic materials such wood chips inside instead of soil! Metal containers look great indoors but need regular watering due to their porous nature.”

  • Choose a plant that has the colour you want. If you want orange flowers and pink leaves, pick an orange-flowered plant with pink foliage.
  • For example: plants with colourful flowers include dahlias and hibiscus. Plants with colourful fruits include strawberries, blueberries and cherry tomatoes.
  • For example: plants with colourful stems include bleeding hearts (the leaves appear when the stem is cut or broken). Plants with colourful bark include camellias and magnolias (the bark has different shades of green or brown on it).
  • For example: plants with colourful roots include bleeding hearts (the root system above ground can be red)
