How to design a fall container

Eva Monheim shares some tips for decorating your front door or back door. It's very easy. She starts with a shrub form of upright ivy and a nice sized pot. The container is large enough to allow several additional containers to be placed around the edge. She adds a Helianthus which is in the sunflower family, and puts a shish kabob skewer through the container which then holds it in place. She next adds chili pepper plants and skewers those as well. She adds some Juncus grass and lays them on their side to soften the edge of the container. Eva then fills in with a fresh plant material, Lamonium, which will dry in place. You can buy it at any garden store or fresh cut flower market. Tuck it in the excess places to hide some of the containers. Next she adds pumpkins which have been placed on skewers and then adds sorgum which is in the corn family. She has wrapped wire around the corn, then around another skewer and then inserts the skewer into the container. Pull down the husks to cover the wire and you have a festive looking container that just screams fall. Thanks Eva you've shown us how to create a beautiful fall container.
