Selecting Bedding Plants

Busy homeowners may find it easier to buy and transplant bedding plants rather than start annuals from seed. Look for bedding plants with deep green leaves and compact growth. Quality bedding plants are short and have thick stems, with side branches close to the base, rather than tall and “leggy."

Although annuals with blossoms seem more attractive, select bedding plants whose buds have not yet opened. Annuals come into bloom more quickly if planted in the bud stage.
