Introduction

If you’re a strawberry planter newbie, choosing the right flowers may seem like an overwhelming task. But if you know what kind of plants and flowers you want, which pollinators you want to attract, which pests you’re dealing with and what kind of climate you live in, it’s much easier to decide what flowers to plant in your strawberry planter. Let’s start by taking a look at some common questions about planting for pollinators and pests:

What’s the Best Flower to Plant in a Strawberry Planter? Here’s How to Decide

Choosing the right plant to plant in your strawberry planter is an important decision. There are many factors that go into determining which plant will thrive in your strawberry planter, such as its size and shape, how much sunlight it needs, and whether or not it can handle brackish water. This guide will walk you through all of these factors so you can choose a flower that’s perfect for your space!

First things first: let’s talk about soil quality. When choosing a flower for your strawberry planter, look at the type of soil available in the pot and make sure it will support whatever kind of growth pattern you have planned for the plant. For example: if one side of your tub is filled with sand while another has more clay-like soil due to erosion from rainwater runoff over time (or because someone put rocks on top!), this might affect how well certain species survive there; some need less nutrients than others do so they might die off sooner than others would under similar conditions.

Secondly–and most importantly–make sure that whatever kind of container

Do you want a strawberry planter with one type of flower or planting, or a mix of flowers and plants?

If you’re looking to plant a strawberry planter, the first thing you need to consider is whether or not you want it filled with flowers and/or plants. If so, there are numerous options for both.

One of the benefits of having both types in your strawberry planter is that they can be used as complements for each other. For example, many flowering plants attract pollinators and bunnies—two key players when it comes to growing strawberries efficiently.

If you’re interested in planting only one kind of flower or plant in your strawberry planter then read on! Below are some tips based on our research:

• Plants that attract pollinators: Bee Balm (Monarda), Black-Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), Butterfly Bush (Buddleia davidii)
• Plants that attract bunnies: Borage (Borago officinalis), Calendula (Calendula officinalis), Coreopsis verticillata ‘Grandiflora’

Decide whether you want flowers that attract pollinators, such as butterflies and hummingbirds.

Pollinators play an important role in ecosystems. They help plants reproduce by carrying pollen from one plant to another. Without pollinators, many species of plants would go extinct because they wouldn’t be able to reproduce on their own. We humans rely on pollinators too—we eat many foods that are fertilized by insects or other animals, including nuts, berries and vegetables like squash, broccoli and spinach.[1]

If you decide your garden needs to attract more pollinators this year, we recommend planting calendula (Calendula officinalis), sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) and larkspur (Consolida ambigua var.). The first two varieties grow two feet tall with large flowers that open up into fiery orange orbs during the day but close at night when bees come out looking for nectar.[2] The third variety can grow up to three feet tall with clusters of small white blooms fluttering over broad green leaves.[3] If you want something smaller than these three options then try miniature daffodils which come in an array of colors such as yellow or purple.[4]

Do you have kids? Choose plants that have bright colors, interesting shapes, and are easy for little hands to pick.

Do you have kids? Choose plants that have bright colors, interesting shapes, and are easy for little hands to pick. If a plant is too tall or prickly, your child might be frightened off. Choose plants that will keep your children entertained while they’re learning about nature!

If bunnies are a problem in your yard, choose plants that they don’t love to nibble on.

If bunnies are a problem in your yard, choose plants that they don’t love to nibble on. Rabbits like to eat tulip bulbs and other bulbs; they also enjoy the roots of many plants. They’ll munch on leaves, stems and flowers as well if given the chance.

Brightly colored flowers may look nice – but they might be toxic or unsafe for small children.

Although brightly colored flowers may look nice, they can also be poisonous or unsafe for small children. If you have children in your household, it’s important to research the safety of each flower you choose. Some plants have toxic leaves that can cause stomach aches or even death if ingested. While most people do not commonly eat their garden plants (they’re there to look pretty!), some more adventurous kids might try eating a dandelion or buttercup right off the vine and end up sick as a result.

Some plants are also dangerous simply due to their size; some are too tall for small hands but still attractive enough for older kids and adults alike!

If you want your strawberry planters to be able to withstand cold weather, choose varieties that can survive below freezing temperatures.

If you want your strawberry planters to be able to withstand cold weather, choose varieties that can survive below freezing temperatures. If you live in a cold climate, choose varieties that can survive below freezing temperatures. If you live in a warm climate, choose varieties that can survive below freezing temperatures.

If you know what kind of plants and flowers you want, which pollinators you want to attract, which pests you’re dealing with and what kind of climate you live in, it’s much easier to decide what flowers to plant in your strawberry planter.
