Showing Off Fall Containers

Fall can be such a sigh of relief. If you’re thrilled when the heat lets up, just think how your plants feel. There’s no central air conditioning for the garden. Plants seem to put on one final hurrah in the fall, both in jubilant colors and refreshed foliage. If you don’t have the time or the room to spiff up the garden beds with fall beauties, you can still enjoy the season with your containers. Kerry Michaels show us some stunning examples in her photo gallery of fall container ideas. Best of all, you don’t even need to go out and buy a lot of new plants. Forget the mums and put your humble lamb’s ears on display.
