FALL CONTAINER GARDEN INSPIRATION FOR THE OUTDOORS
STEP ONE: ADD POTTING SOIL
First, fill your favorite pottery with Calloway’s Premium Container Potting Soil, leaving room for your plants. Calloway’s Premium Container Potting Soil is made from the highest quality ingredients to help your plants get the best start for healthier, continued growth.
STEP TWO: ADD THE THRILLER
Next, add your Thriller. This is the focal point of the container. You can place it in the center or near the back, depending on where it will be displayed. Garden Mums are a perennial favorite for fall. They feature an array of colorful, fluffy petals from early fall through winter.
STEP THREE: ADD THE SPILLER
Next, add the Spiller. This would be your long trailing plants or something that hangs over the edge of the container. Try Ornamental Kale. Ornamental Kale is great for adding rich color and texture to your creation.
STEP FOUR: ADD THE FILLER
Finally, complete your creation with your Filler. Choose options that will round out your container and to provide contrast and fullness. Add colorful accents like Ornamental Peppers and Matrix® Pansies. Ornamental Peppers are visually striking, and the upright fruit provides attractive color to any flowerbed or container garden.
Matrix® Pansies are cherished for their vibrant, large blooms and consistent growth throughout the cooler season. These beautiful flowers are available in a variety of fall colors with both blotch and clear faces.
When you are finished planting, add more potting soil if needed. Water in thoroughly and show off your fall container garden in a sunny location.
FALL CONTAINER GARDEN INSPIRATION FOR THE INDOORS
STEP ONE: ADD POTTING SOIL
First, fill your selection of stylish pottery with Calloway’s Premium Container Potting Soil, leaving room for your plants. For our pottery, we chose a neutral, matte piece from Michael Carr® Designs that will compliment any interior décor at any time of year! At Calloway’s and Cornelius, we have an expansive pottery collection with all the colors of the rainbow and sizes for any indoor or outdoor space!
STEP TWO: ADD THE THRILLER
Next, add your Thriller or focal point of your container garden. Petra Croton has beautiful fall foliage with bold blends of red, yellow, orange, and green. They are an ideal choice for indoor gardens or a partially shaded patio.
STEP THREE: ADD THE FILLER
Next, add the Filler. Try Floral Mums to add beauty and a pop of bright color. The array of soft petals give fullness to your combination, and they are great as a cut flower for an indoor arrangement.
STEP FOUR: ADD THE SPILLER
Finally, complete your design with the Spiller plant. Asparagus Fern is a unique option to create visual interest. The gorgeous green color and soft feathery texture will take your container garden to the next level.
