Develop an artful presentation. This process comes naturally to Lydia. “I usually play with the placement until it feels right,” she explains. The pots growers use are not very pliable, so transferring seedlings and their soil into plastic bags allows more flexibility and increased water retention. Larger shrubs, such as hydrangeas, are better left in their original containers. Consider where the centerpiece will be displayed to determine whether you need to address only the front and sides or plan for a 360° view.
