20 Favorite Container Plants For Your Potted Garden Oasis

Make sure your plant has the right light

The right light is one of the most important factors in how your container garden will grow. A plant needs to be in the right kind of light for it to thrive, and there’s no shortage of options when it comes to selecting a potted plant that could work for your space.

The most basic rule? The sunnier the day, the more sunlight your plants will need; conversely, if you live in an area where winters are harsher than average or there is very little natural daylight (such as a city), then you may want to consider using artificial lighting sources such as LED lights or fluorescent tubes rather than incandescent bulbs—or even better yet, consider growing indoors during periods when weather conditions prevent outdoor gardening!

A Persian shield doesn’t need full sun, but it does need light shade

Persian shield, also known as the “limestone plant,” is a succulent. It grows best in pots with drainage holes, but it does not require full sun to thrive. Like all succulents, plants need regular watering and should never be allowed to dry out completely—keep them moist at all times!

Persian shields are also very easy to grow; they’ll grow from seed or from cuttings (which will root quickly). During hot weather months, keep your plant in a warm environment (between 55°F and 75°F), away from direct sunlight; if you live in an area where temperatures drop below freezing during the winter, consider bringing them inside until springtime arrives and temperatures begin to warm up again.

Growing asparagus fern does not even require a pot

Asparagus fern is a type of fern that can be grown in a pot, even if you have no soil. It’s a tropical plant and needs lots of light to thrive.

Asparagus fern will grow well as long as you keep it watered regularly and don’t let the soil dry out completely (which could happen during winter). You should also make sure that your plant receives enough sunlight throughout the day; otherwise, it may not flower well or produce seed pods like it should when grown indoors!

In cooler zones, you can treat blood leaves as an annual

In cooler zones, you can treat blood leaves as an annual. It will grow quickly and produce new growth in the spring, but it will not continue to flower or produce seed pods like its tropical cousins.

Blood leaf is hardy to Zone 10 and can be grown indoors if you live in a warm part of the country with high humidity levels (ideal for most people). If you live in a really cold area or don’t have access to misting or supplemental heaters at all times, then this plant may not be worth growing outside; however, it’s still worth considering if your climate allows for temperatures above freezing during winter months (which means most places do).

Coleus is known as one of the easiest plants to grow indoors

Coleus is one of the easiest plants to grow indoors. It can be grown in pots or on the ground, and it can also be grown outdoors during mild winters. The plant prefers shady areas and does well if you live in an area that has cool summers, like Florida or southern California.

Coleus doesn’t require much care at all when you’re growing it indoors; just make sure to provide adequate light (but not direct sunlight) and water regularly until your plant reaches maturity. Once they’re done growing up, there’s no need to report them—just let them go wild!

Peperomia cylindrical is a lovely plant with a distinct appearance

This succulent is known as the wax plant, but it doesn’t have any actual wax on its leaves. Instead, this type of cactus has long, narrow leaves and looks like a cactus in shape but with shorter stems.

The Peperomia cylinder requires very little water to survive. As long as there is some shade (ideally), it should be able to thrive without any additional watering! For best results, keep them in direct sunlight where they can receive bright light throughout the day and night cycles while they’re still young enough not to need much water yet either; then, once they grow older than 2 years old (and start developing flowers), you’ll want some additional water every week or two during drought conditions so that your plants don’t die off completely!

Caltha can be treated as a houseplant during the winter and taken outside the rest of the year

It’s a great plant for beginners because it’s easy to grow, has amazing flowers, and is one of the most beautiful container plants around!

Caltha has gorgeous pink flowers that appear all summer long, but if you’re looking for something more colorful in your garden, then try Kalanchoe thyrsiflora or Kalanchoe daigremontiana. These two varieties have large variegated leaves that turn yellowish-orange in the fall and then green again each spring when they bloom again!

African violets self-pollinate and create lots of babies to fill up your pots with these pretty flowers

African violets are easy to grow and will thrive in any container, even those you might find at the Dollar Store. They can be grown in pots, but they also make beautiful houseplants that you’ll want to display on your windowsill or plant in a large planter. If you’re new to gardening, it’s best not to go with the cheapest variety of African violet that you can find—you want something with full-size bulbs so that it will flower well over time (and not just once).

African violets need lots of light for their leaves and flowers to thrive; don’t worry if your plant has been sitting under a cloche for several years! The flowers themselves don’t take up much space: each one measures only about an inch wide by 1/4 inch long when fully open at nightfall (when temperatures drop). Even though these plants only grow about 2 inches tall overall, there’s no reason why yours shouldn’t look its best!

Snake plant is low-light-tolerant and easy to care for

The snake plant, also known as mother-in-law’s tongue or mother-in-law’s curse, is one of the easiest houseplants to grow. The leaves are long and narrow with pointed tips, making them very pretty in their own right. It can be grown indoors or outdoors, and it prefers full-sun conditions (although it will tolerate partial shade). Once established, this plant does not require much water; however, if you want to keep your snake plant healthy and attractive all year, give it regular watering every week or two during the summer months when temperatures exceed 60 degrees Fahrenheit (16 degrees Celsius). In addition to its low maintenance requirements, this particular species grows slowly, so keep an eye out for new growth when repotting!

The parlor palm is one of the most common houseplants you’ll find because it’s so easy to care for

This is a great plant for beginners and those who don’t have much time on their hands, but still want to enjoy their potted garden oasis.If you’re looking for a plant that will grow well indoors, this could be your go-to option!

Many kinds of plants will thrive in containers if you give them the right kind of care.

Plants need water and light, so they can’t be too dry or dark (or the leaves will burn). They also need nutrients, like fertilizer, to grow strong. Plants should be watered regularly throughout their entire life cycle, but especially after transplanting or repotting—and not just when it’s raining outside! When you’re watering your container garden, make sure that all sides receive equal amounts of water; otherwise, one side may dry out while another stays moist enough to support growth without additional attention from you. If this happens over time and results in tall grasses growing unchecked near the base of your potted plant(s), trim them back before they become too tall for their space by using pruners carefully positioned near where they meet the soil level—but not touching it!
