Useful suggestions for creating attractive fall window field and container shows!

These stunning fall foliage ideas in your containers and window bins will carry you thru to Thanksgiving. 

I normally wait only a tad longer to vary out our window bins and planters, however a few of them have been trying terrible, so I made a decision to get began on the autumn variations. 

Our window bins by no means took off like regular this yr. We had a deep freeze one night time late within the spring and even after masking them, they have been zapped. The potato vine by no means did properly and the petunias did not develop a lot in any respect. 

I gave up on them a pair weeks in the past and stopped watering as a result of they seemed so unhealthy: 

The petunias stuffed in significantly better than this many of the summer time, however general it was nothing like regular. 

Since our temps are trying nice for no less than the following two weeks, I made a decision to begin engaged on the autumn window bins. 

For fall, filler could be your extra compact crops like mums and decorative kale. Thriller crops are normally taller choices like grasses (which I do not normally use within the window bins). Spillers are sometimes vine crops like asparagus fern, ivy or candy potato vines. 

Inexperienced and purple kale

I’ve just a few requirements for the planters this time of yr, however I discovered some new favorites as properly! You possibly can’t go fallacious with totally different forms of kale: 

Additionally they are available inexperienced variations, however I like the deep purple tones in these. I grabbed these two variations for our window bins. Cabbage/kale are GREAT as a result of their ruffled leaves make them so full.

I additionally love Coleus — there are such a lot of stunning choices in fall shades: 

I could not discover any Coleus sufficiently small for the bins sadly.

Vines or asparagus fern are nice for the spiller, however I do not discover they do as properly within the cooler months round right here. 

This time I went for these attractive “sizzling pops purple” peppers — they’re so full and spill over the bins superbly:
