Fall Container Time!

I really love container planting and I feel as if I'm getting a bit better at it. My fall container has a great burgundy, purple, and pink theme and, although I feel confident about my plant choice, I feel as if I still need to work on the overall balance of my containers. Here is a list of the plants in my fall container: Heuchera villosa, Agastache mexicana 'Red Fortune', Lobelia 'Grape Knee Hi', Heuchera 'Southern Comfort', Colocasia esculenta 'Black Magic', Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea', Lonicera 'Crimson Cascade', Lobelia cardinalis 'Queen Victoria', Muhlenbergia capillaris, Stokesia laevis, and Chrysanthemum 'Brandi'. I look forward to seeing everything fill out and am already starting to consider how to create winter interest in both my garden and container.
