Plant the perfect container for your deck, entryway, or yard using our gallery of inspiring ideas

Meadow in a bowl

Small-leafed plants share a 30-inch-wide concrete bowl.

Silvery Festuca glauca 'Elijah Blue' fills the center while purple fountain grass hens and chickens a silver-leafed hebe and 'Teenie Genie' a slow-growing dwarf Syzygium (also sold as Eugenia) grow around it.

Container for spring and summer

Sago palm anchors this composition in a 22- by 24-inch glazed urn. Below it are 'Orange Profusion' zinnias, yellow Pachystachys lutea, and trailing variegated vinca.

Patio snow

Fluffy white azaleas and hydrangeas piled in containers resemble snowballs. Forced into flower for the holidays, both plants are sold at nurseries, garden centers, and grocery stores, usually in 6-inch containers (https://www.hanabayflowers.com for store locations).

Lightweight fiberglass-clay planters, 16 and 20 in. wide; from $69; https://www.smithandhawken.com or 800/981-9888.

Kitchen garden in a pot

Arrange herbs in a container to a striking effect: Oregano, 'Golden' sage, 'Tricolor' sage, chives, and lemon thyme.

Halloween in a pot

Celebrate Halloween with orange and black plants. Combine black foliage with orange blooms in pots of similar hues like ebony and persimmon. Then add some gnarly twigs ― like the pod-laden phormium stalks shown ― from your garden or a craft or floral supply shop among the plants.

Fall color

For a modern look, plant your arrangements in glazed pots of deep burgundy, forest green, or pebble gray. You'll create a fresh autumnal mood without having to rake a single leaf.
