3. Mum Planter Trio
Chrysanthemums are the undisputed stars of the fall porch, and grouping them in threes makes even a simple porch look abundant. Choose rust, gold, and deep plum mums to echo this season’s moody palette.
Repot them into matching or coordinated planters — ceramic, galvanized metal, or woven baskets — so the trio reads as one deliberate arrangement instead of three random pots from the garden center.
What You’ll Need
- 3 potted mums in fall colors
- 3 coordinating planters or baskets
- Potting soil
- Watering can
How to Make
- Choose two planters to flank the door and one slightly smaller for a step or corner.
- Repot each mum into its container, packing soil firmly around the root ball.
- Water thoroughly and arrange the trio at slightly staggered heights using risers if needed.
