    30 Containers for Covered Porches That Will Thrive in the Shade

    30 Containers for Covered Porches That Will Thrive in the Shade

    Some containers have all the sun. These shady planters, though, are having plenty of fun sans sun. We’ve gathered all of our favorite shade-loving containers to inspire your planting this season. If you have a shady yard or want to perk up a shaded spot in your home, at your front door, on your porch, or around your patio, put together a pretty shade-loving container that’s also easy to care for. Plants like caladiums and creeping Jenny will thrive in the shade, and they’ll also add great color and movement to your planters. If you’re looking for the best plants for the shade and great flowers that thrive in shade, also reach for impatiens, coleus, sweet potato vines, mazus, vincas, torenias, violas, petunias, pansies, hellebores (Lenten roses), hostas, astilbes, and trilliums. They look great and will thrive in full to partial shade. Shade-loving flowers aren’t too hard to find. Ask around at your local garden store, and you’ll be able to locate the ingredients and put together any one of these shade-tolerant container ideas. Also, in regards to your container, don’t forget to think vertical. We love pots and planters, but a hanging basket is another great option, as is an elevated planter, which will make a statement and take advantage of any vertical space.

Apple crisp recipes are some of the easiest desserts to make, but that doesn’t mean they lack any flavor. Apple crisps come in a variety of forms, and with these amazing recipes, you’ll see the crisp like never before. Whether you make an old-fashioned apple crisp, an apple crisp pie, apple crisp cookie cups, or an apple crisp galette, there’s a golden rule to most (if not all) warm, crumbly desserts: They are best served with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream. With summery recipes like rhubarb apple crisp and holiday-ready recipes like cranberry apple crisp, these ideas are delicious any season. Many of these treats are made with pantry ingredients you already have, and with super quick and slow cooker recipes, there’s an apple crisp to fit any schedule. The next time you get a sweet tooth, an apple crisp recipe is the easiest way to satisfy it.

The trick to keeping an apple crisp actually crispy in the slow cooker? Layer a kitchen towel or a couple of paper towels on the slow cooker before placing the lid on top to soak up condensation from the lid.
