Are your combos profitable? Are their sales strong and growing, your costs under control, and your prices outpacing rising costs?

It's December, there's a chill in the air (and hopefully no snowstorm), and you're wondering what will be hot in the 2013 container season. Here is an outline of the different factors you will need to consider when planning your combinations. Perceived understanding of mixed containers: Making use of leftover liners. Sticking a couple of trailers in hanging baskets the week of shipping. Seeing a picture in a magazine for decks and patios. Utilizing a favourite cultivar and anything goes with it. Having a surplus of a cultivar and combining it with other cultivars. What's your definition of a good mixed container? For me, it's a group of three to four cultivars (varieties) that look better in a combination than they do on their own.
