This is a stunning pot of flowers, which must have been watered 2x per day, and fertilized right.It is already Aug. and not getting tired.

If you want your potted flowers to be vibrant in August, then it is best to plant them yourself as smaller plants. The pots and baskets that look beautiful in may/june such as the ones from Costco, will peak early, and probably not be so vibrant in the end of summer. (unless you are lucky)
