Hey there, friend!

I cannot believe that summer is ending soon and fall is just around the corner. Who else is ready to get their containers refreshed and ready for the autumn season ahead?
 

As much as I love the quintessential look of mums for fall containers, they can be tough to keep alive when it's still very hot outside.
 

Today I'm showing you alternatives — heat-tolerant fall plants that will not only survive in the late summer weather but carry your containers all the way to Christmas!
 

If you're ready to plant your own containers, you can get the step-by-step directions with a video to follow along! PS-Here's a link to shop all the plants I used!

 

From the soil up,
 

XOXO,💚
