I want to fix up some and I was looking for planting combination suggestions. I was wanting to fill the basket with moss and have plants growing out the bottom. I want to make four total and would like to make them match. I have two out front that are an interesting mix of whatever I stick in there, calladiums, superbells, cup and saucer vine, sweet potato vine, and morning glory...there may or may not be moonflower planted as well.

We sell a lot of Proven Winner combinations at our place. We also sell the plants to make them with.

If you use this site only for color ideas, you'll get some great ones.

Of course you don't have to use proven winner plants, just a similar type plant.

This site practically has me drooling every time I look at it. I get great catalogues from them in August so I can start making my plans for next years spring combo pots we make for our greenhouses.

You are so very welcome. I love it too!
I can't remember if the Fall Magic stuff is there yet...but take a look at it when the time comes. So much more than just mums and asters for color.
