What Every Flower Pot Needs

A little bit ago I refinished some pots for our front patio. With temperatures over 100 degrees and summer travel, the plants are really hard to keep alive. But with stuff cooling off (90’s) it was time to replant. A friend, that has gorgeous plants, introduced me to the idea that there are three essentials to every pot:

  1. Thriller
  2. Filler
  3. Spiller

So, here we go. For the thriller I used tall grass:

The filler is a multi-colored mum (still needs to bloom!):

And finally, the spiller, some pansies that will eventually spill over the edge:

And the front porch is rejuvenated! When you pot, remember the three essentials and it’s easy!

Happy Creating!
