3-in-1 Summer Combos
One of our most popular summer crops are the fun and festive 3-in-1 combo pots of pre-designed annuals. 3 different varieties of flowers are grown in a 6” pot for easy design and decoration. Need a small pot decoration? Use one pot. Need a medium pot decoration? Use 2 pots planted together. Need a large pot decoration? Use 3-4 pots planted together to create a big beautiful, color coordinated pot of flowers. Many different combos to choose from, including many new combos for 2019!
