ABOUT THESE RECIPES
Each recipe is for an approximate size and shape planter, and a recommended amount of sun exposure needed to flourish.
I lay out the plant varieties and sizes you’ll need to buy, and how to arrange them in your container.
When possible, I’ve included substitutes, in case you can’t find the exact plants featured.
I’ve suggested modifications to try if your planter is a different shape or size from the one in the recipe.
Spend less time deliberating and more time enjoying your beautiful work.
Read Our General Guidelines For Planting →
If the planter you’d like to fill is slightly larger or smaller than the templates I’ve provided here, please see our FAQ about Planter Recipes.
Each recipe also includes general guidelines about making these adjustments, and even converting designs from round to square, or square to round.
