Combination planters are evaluated by customers before they are ever produced by Floral Plant Growers.

Every year, specialty containers take up a larger percentage of Floral Plant Growers' greenhouse space.

More vegetative plants, such as coleus, are going into specialty containers. In many cases these plants aren't compatible with automated systems designed for plug transplanting.

Mass marketers view container colors as a way to differentiate themselves. Some prefer dark greens to terra cotta or white.
