I haven't had time to do any flowers in pots yet this year and now am devoid of ideas. I have some white verbena and some geraniums to go in. Any suggestions of what to put with them? what are you all growing?

Hello there. I don't do much in the way of flowers but I would suggest trailing lobelia or petunias to soften the edges of the containers. Not sure on the names of other trailing plants though I have seen some lovely little blue daisy ones.

Thanks. What I'm struggling with though is combinations of plants to look good together. Not very imaginative (normally veg grower)
