If you are getting ready to plant your patio pots or hanging baskets, don't forget the fertilizer. A good time released fertlizer is osmocote. It lasts about 3 months. Just mix a small about (read the label for specific amounts) in with the soil in the pot and your plants will be happy and thrive.
I also add a table spoon of miracle grow fertlizer to a gallon of water each time I water my hanging baskets or patio pots simply because a lot of the water leaches out and you lose a lot of nutrients.
Don't forget to dead head your plants to keep the blooming all summer long!
