Update Your Container Gardens for Autumn
Planter boxes are a delightful addition to any garden, and as the autumn season approaches, it's time to refresh them for a new display of colour and texture. In this article, we'll guide you through the process of revitalizing your planter boxes for fall, using products from our shop.
First, remove dead plants and debris from your summer planters to prepare a clean base. Fill the planter with a nutrient-rich, organic potting soil, ensuring good drainage holes are present. Add compost on top of the soil to enrich it for new plants. To maintain plant health, consider repotting every few years.
When it comes to selecting fall-appropriate plants, consider options like mums, pumpkins, foliage, or compact herbs. Edible fall planters can include plants that are both attractive and productive. For container care, water as needed until soil freezes, and avoid watering frozen pots. Applying an antidesiccant product like Wilt-Pruf on evergreens can protect them from harsh winter winds.
For those seeking creative planter ideas, consider using recycled tin cans painted or decorated with fall motifs, repurposing vintage items like window frames as planters, or creating multi-tiered herb garden planters.
In our shop, we offer a variety of products to aid in this process. The VegTrug Raised Garden Planter is available in a 3-level plant pyramid variant and a 5-level plant pyramid version, both in natural wood. The VegTrug Wallhugger Raised Garden Planter is another option, also in natural wood.
We also stock the Garden Tower 2 - Vertical Garden Planter & Composter, perfect for those who want to make the most of their space. For a sturdy and attractive storage solution, consider the 4 x 2 Cedar Potting Bench. And don't forget Natural Cedar Planter Boxes, which add a rustic charm to any garden.
To maintain your planters, prune tired summer plants like petunias to encourage new growth, rotate planters to even out sun exposure, and use good-quality potting soil designed for containers.
By following these steps and incorporating our shop's products, you can effectively refresh your planter boxes for fall, creating a stunning display that will last throughout the season. Happy gardening!
