The mix is perfect for window boxes, hanging baskets, and mixed containers. The orange is especially impressive, as it has bronze foliage that really stands out in the mix.

This is definitely off topic, but here's my question: How do I keep pine needles out of the garden when they drop (and inevitably blow)? My garden is in a great location (given available options): plenty of sun, well-drained, and so on. But the pine needles drive me batty--the pine trees are all over, and I can't cut them down--I'm in a wetland conservation area. But surely there must be some solution...
Unless you can cover your whole garden with a hoophouse, you probably won't be able to keep out many pine needles. You may want to test your soil pH every spring, since pine needles have an acidifying effect. If you are worried about soil acidification, you might consider planting blueberries or strawberries nearest to the pine trees and raking needles back onto them as a mulch.
