I tried FAQ but can't find a history of posts and did not get anywhere. Looking for suggestion on sun container flowers. Three pots together.

Something I can get at Home Depot. Just out of ideas. Pots are 2-11" pots 1-13" pot. I know this seems like a waste of time for you but Thanks W TN.

Thanks, Karen

Here's a quick list off the top of my head:
petunias, dahlias, sunflowers, smaller roses, marigolds, lavender, verbena, lilies, geranium, calibrachoa.

It would help if I knew if you wanted annuals or perennials, and what look you are going for. Best advice is just to peruse Home Depot and see what they have on hand

I'm looking for annuals. I really want to have one type of plant in each container. The two smaller pots the same.
When I go to shop without something in mind, I always just get confused. What would you plant? Would nasturtiums be too much for my size pots, just a thought.
Thanks for responding,
Karen
