Default What flowers can i grow in pots ready for next July?

i am getting maried next July and its on a budget! To save money i thought i could grow the centre pieces for the tables at the reception. i need something that won't look too sparse (no soil on show) and will give me flowers through out July. White is my preferred colour. can anyone give me any advice?

Perennials of course. White coneflowers, daisies, babys breath, white roses,calla lilies,lillium, lily of the valley etc. You could plant some of these now from seeds and maybe buy small plants or bulbs or roots to grown more and bigger plants for next july. Good luck! Nothing wrong with being on a budget.

If you have a south facing garden, lots of things.

What would you like?

I would have thought it would be better to envisage the bouquet and then ask the gardeners of Yahoo as to how and whether you can get it in the time.
