Give your planters a great new look this fall by swapping out tired summer blooms for vibrant seasonal favorites. University of Memphis Director of Landscape Joellen Dimond talks about how to do it: bright pansies, marigolds, and crotons pair beautifully with perennials like asters, mums, and coral bells to create eye-catching displays using the classic “thriller, filler, spiller” design. Add in ornamental kale, peppers, or trailing vines for extra flair, and top it all off with pumpkins, gourds, or corn stalks for a festive touch that makes your containers pop through the crisp autumn months.
