If you are passionate about flowers, plant fall-colored plants into your planter. Fall is the best time to add color to your yard. Hanging baskets made with vibrant perennials and annuals are a good option. The tops and leaves of your plants will pop out of the window frame giving your planter an inviting, cozy look. For a splash of color, add yellow garden pansies or radiant marigolds to your planter.
The same steps can be used to create a fall window box planter. Fill the container with a variety of fall-themed flowers. A stunning fall window box can be made with foliage, filler and corn stalks. Fall ornamental grasses often go on sale and are great deals. Use taller ones at the back of the container to give it height. Branchs and berries can be used to add texture.
A hanging basket is bulky and can get heavy, so you may want to fill it with a small plastic bottle. You can also use a ceramic potter if your hanging basket is not empty. For a nice contrast to the purple plants, you can add some ornamental kale/cave. Ornamental cabbage and kale are good options. To start a garden, a meadow plantinger can be used. Don't forget to search for perennials during the fall.
When planning your fall planter, choose the season you plan to add color. Planters can be filled with mums, marigolds, or petunias. Planters can also be filled up with tall grasses and ornamental plants, as well as dried leaves and flowers. Regardless of the season, there are endless ways to dress up your home with beautiful fall-themed containers. And remember to experiment!
When the temperatures drop below freezing, your planter's leaves will start to wilt. For the best effect, you may have to add more plants. You will see results slower as the days are shorter and the nights become colder. It is possible to extend the season by using a fall gardener. Your plants will still have a place to grow until the ground freezes.
Fall container gardening allows you to experiment with different colors and textures. You can mix annuals with perennials or match textures. Grouping containers can help you improve the appearance and look of an area, without having to replace your entire container garden. This is especially useful when fall plants are beginning to fade.
