Modern Planters for Container Gardening

This Spring I’ve been kicking off outdoor projects in our backyard earlier. One of my favorite outdoor projects is container gardening. I love filling my patio with plants and adding a mixture of flowers and plants. I consider plants on my patio decor accessories, they enhance the vibe of my outdoor spaces helping to make my outdoor spaces feel like an extension of our home. On my patio, I layer in different style planters, I love the mixture of white, grey, and terra cotta planters.

Below is a view of my patio, last Summer. Inside my planters, I’ve planted: bougainvillea, dwarf lemon tree, hostas, succulents, and much more. When visiting local gardens for plants, I always check the tags and make sure the plants I’m bringing home will thrive in a planter.

I also love the flexibility of container gardening, some plants I’ve tried planting in the ground have never thrived for me, when I’ve placed them in containers they’ve done amazing! Today I’m sharing a roundup of modern planters for container gardening that will help bring your patio to life. Below is shows how I use planters in my outdoor spaces.

I recently discovered the book Modern Container Gardening, while browsing in my in a cute little bookstore in Calistoga. I love all the different ideas on making your patio and planters come to life, this book is a must for container gardening.
