    hello,

    I have a cement container which is 3 feet long, 1 feet wide, and 1 feet deep. on one corner i have planted star jasmine, and in another its morning glory blue. Now i want to plant honeysuckle in the centre. Should i do it or i should place it in another pot?. If not, kindly suggest some fragrant vine which can be grown in this pot size.

    The container gets a lots of sun, very hot summers (40 c+) in our region.


    thanks,
    Khabbab

    just so you know, you'll be pulling out dead morning glory vines from the container of other perennial vines when the season is over. Cleaning dead vines from live ones is not fun. Putting all these in one container just means more watering because 3 plants will consume water faster than 2. It may also restrict the size of the plant. I'd put the honeysuckle in another pot and try heliotrope to accompany them both.
