Container Q&A with Suzi Bedner
Mixed Container Gardens are one of our specialties here at Bedner’s. Every February and March we plant up hundreds of containers for spring, and Suzi Bedner designs and takes care of them.
Here, Melanie asks Suzi a few questions to learn how she makes the containers so beautiful and what tips she has for home gardeners.
Learn about some of the most frequently asked questions people have about container gardening, plus common mistakes that people make. Suzi also talks about some of her favorite plants and how to take care of containers so that they last all summer.
The people of Bedner’s Farm & Greenhouse are here to inspire future plant people. We care about the vast benefits to our environment, health and quality of life, and would love to share it all with you. Please ask if you have any questions on how to plant and care for your container gardens. We’d be thrilled to help if you need us.

Melanie has been with the family garden center business since 1999, gaining hands-on experience in nearly every aspect–from cashiering and greenhouse production to bookkeeping, perennial buying, marketing, and store management. Now serving as Finance and Marketing Director, she combines her expertise with a passion for growing the business. She and her husband, Russ, have loved seeing how plants, gardening, and beautiful landscapes bring joy to our community.
