Mandevilla
"This is one of our most popular tropical plants. It's so bright and showy! It will bloom and bloom until it frosts. People just love them." - Joyce Larson
Gardenia Buttons
This compact tropical plant is covered in double blooms! If the unique look of this dwarf gardenia isn't enough to start a conversation, these "cute as a button" plants have something else up their leaves. The two inch white flowers offer a super sweet and strong fragrance that screams sunshine and summer.
Oleander
The Oleander is an excellent container and patio plant. The flowers grow in clusters at the end of each branch, blooming all summer long. Sometimes the flowers will even offer a sweet scent.
Vertigo Fountain Grass
This very full, purple leaved ornamental grass looks great in containers, said Joyce. At 45-50 inches tall, Vertigo Fountain Grass is compact, but still able to add some architectural interest to any room.
