Tomatoes are a must for 
any vegetable grower. But 
what if you don’t have an 
outdoor growing space? No 
garden, no problem with the 
Kitchen Minis collection of 
indoor potted vegetables. 
Look for Siam Tomato, 
which gives you several 
weeks of cherry-sized fruit 
for your fresh eating and 
recipes. Enjoy it on a sunny 
windowsill indoors or next 
to your other easy-access 
countertop herbs.

POLLINATOR GARDENS
Pollination is essential for 
plants to flourish, and accord-
ing to the U.S. Forest Service, 
pollinators are responsible 
for assisting over 80% of 
the world’s flowering plants 
to reproduce. This includes 
hard-working insects like 
butterflies, bees and birds. 
Because of their essential 
work, everyone can enjoy 
plants that delight the eyes 
and tasty foods that tantalize 
the taste buds.
Some pollinator populations 
are diminishing, so people are 
taking action by planting pol-
linator-friendly gardens. For 
example, if you want butterfly 
bliss in your garden, choose 
Chrysalis Buddleia. Known 
as Butterfly Bush, this plant 
has an abundance of flowers 
but grows in a manageable 
size — perfect for a small 
hanging basket. Add in a few 

Shamrock Lantana, whose 
blooms are an attractive, soft 
landing pad, and you’ll be cre-
ating a pollinator paradise.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
After spending the last few 
years close to home, people 
are taking exceptional pride 
in their property by prioritiz-
ing curb appeal. Friendly yel-
lows and vivid purples are on 
trend and broadly appealing, 
making your home stand out 
on the block.
 For a sunny show all sea-
son long, plant Bee’s Knees 
Petunias. The intense yellow 
color of each big bloom adds 
brightness to your landscap-
ing. Juxtapose the yellow 
with Jolt Purple Dianthus, 
adding a vivid magenta 
shade that instantly adds 
personality.
Curb appeal can come 
from more than just flow-
ering plants, of course. For 
visual interest in a fruiting 
plant, check out Pepper 
Candy Cane Chocolate 
Cherry. With variegated 
foliage and uniquely striped 
fruit that changes from green 
to chocolate and cherry red, 
this is a treat for the eyes and 
the stomach.
No matter the size of your 
garden space or the time 
you can put into your plants, 
there’s something for every-
one in the top gardening 
trends of the year.
