    Fall Flower Planters You Can Easily Create

    September 7, 2020 by Patti Estep 4 Comments

    Get inspired by a wonderful group of fall flower planters you can create at home and display for months until the cold weather hits.

    Fall is like spring. At least in my neck of the woods. After a long winter, I can't wait to get out into the garden after being cooped up so long. And, come fall after months of hot weather and humidity, the cool air is so invigorating, it makes me eager to get outside and play.

    One thing I love to do for the front door is create beautiful fall flower planters. Typically I use some of the plants from the summer and fill in with more fall-like color.

    Heliopsis 'Burning Hearts' aka oxeye daisy or oxeye sunfower.

    This Heliopsis 'Burning Hearts' is new to me and perfect for fall. It's also a perennial so I can plant it in the garden just before winter sets in.

    Oxeye sunflowers, black heuchera, and green sweet potato vine in a tall black cereamic pot.

    The bright green sweet potato vine was already in this planter. It looks so pretty and grew so well I thought it deserved to stay.

    The last addition is a pretty Heuchera called, Black Pearl. This is also a perennial and can be relocated to the garden before winter.

    For even more inspiration check out some of my past fall flower planter ideas along with a few other garden lovers' ideas for fall container gardens.

      Your fall planters are always so beautiful and I really like this one, very elegant with the height and draping. So my question because I'm horrible with planters, how often do you fertilize to keep them fresh and looking beautiful?

      Thanks,
      Carole

        Thanks Carole. I often throw in a small handful of slow-release fertilizer when I plant my pots. You can also use a little of the blue stuff or whatever water soluble fertilizer you like for any flower containers. A general 10-10-10 is fine.
