Planters and container gardens add an inviting, ornamental depth to patios, entryways and decks. Not every deck is a prime location for the finishing touch of a planter, however. Shady areas offer a respite from summer heat, but stunt plant growth. To avoid thin, spindly plants that fail to thrive or even bloom, choose shade-loving plants that happily face the challenges of a container.
