I was inspired to create this container garden by the late season and the rich colors of fall. But the warmth of summer is still hanging on – for now. This garden pot appeals to the side of me that wants things a little wild – while also maintaining a certain sense of stylish decorum.
The plants in this recipe:
- (1) Coreopsis ‘Cosmic Evolution’
- (1) Pennisetum Setaceum ‘Rubrum’
- (1) Thymus vulgaris ‘Hi Ho Silver’
- (1) Carex comans ‘Frosted Curls’
- (1) Coreopsis ‘Jive’
- (1) Calibrachoa ‘Dreamsicle’
I found all the plants locally, but here is where you can find the plants online:
- Calibrachoa ‘Dreamsicle’ Available from Proven Winners.
- Carex comans ‘Frosted Curls’ – Available from Bluestone Perennials or Proven Winners
- Pennisetum setaceum ‘Rubrum’ Available from Proven Winners
- Thymus vulgaris ‘Hi Ho Silver’ Available from Wilder Herbs
- Coreopsis ‘Cosmic Evolution’ – Available from Santa Rosa Gardens
- Coreopsis ‘Jive’ – Available from Santa Rosa Gardens
- Container: Campania International

I’ve never done any container gardening like this before, but I’m suddenly finding myself obsessed with all the cool recipes on your site. I don’t trust my own design sense, but now that I have some guidance, I’m definitely going to try to find some space in my apartment for a few little containers.

A very nice and earthy arrangement. Great for a rustic chic type of setting. Love how the Calibrachoa ‘Dreamsicle’ brightens it up.
