Fuschia
Tidal Wave Petunia
These beauties can grow, and grow, and grow! Because they grow so fast, I recommend planting them in hanging containers. This award willing flower is great for covering up anything unsightly in your yard, and it smells beautiful.

Calibrachoa
If you thought that the Petunias grew fast, you haven’t seen a Calibrachoa plant in action! This plant can grow up to 12-14 inches in a single season! Place yours in a hanging container in an area of full sun. Soil should be kept moist, and foliage should be kept dry when watering. These are a great addition to any hanging basket.
Begonia
Trailing Snapdragon
Sweet Potato Vine
Sweet Potato Vine is one of the easiest plants to grow on this list and is one of the most colorful. Though this variety doesn’t produce any edible treats, it does give off bright foliage and spreads speedy quick. Keep containers in partial sun with well-draining soil.
Glory Flower
Parrots Beak
