After being used to living in the country with a lot of yard for my flowers etc. I am going crazy about not being able to plant anything here at my small apartment in Houston! Is there any kind of hanging flowers and/or container flowers that would do well in this awful heat we have? I have a small area in front that I have put birdfeeders and a birdbath and would like to add some kind of color.
The problem I have been running into is so far is everything that I have liked and wanted to get I've been told wouldn't do well because of the sun/shade situation. We only get about an hour or 2 of direct sun in the front but it is the hot evening sun and very little shade at that time. I would need something that would go well in shade/bright light. (I think?) Something that needs full sun or full shade wouldn't work. What I would really like is something that would attract the hummingbirds and butterflies.
Maybe what I want and what would do well are 2 different things...I dunno. lol
I would appreciate any input I could get. If y'all can make sense of this. LOL
Thanks,
Susan
