This weekend I helped my mom repot her empty (or sad) planters, she needed a refresh before a shindig she was having.

The existing plant in this pot was the pansy , but it was in the 4" container and had grown lots of roots out past the container. We dug it up carefully and cut the plastic container off, repotted it with some lavender, dusty miller, and capendula? I love how the color combo on this one turned out especially because the pansy has just enough yellow to tie into the yellow patio furniture next to the pot.
All the visible plants here are new there are a couple in the back that are just coming back from last year so we left a little space for them
Most of the plants here came back from last year, it just had a spot that needed to be filled on the left so we balanced out the existing dark purple potato vine with the dark red grass

This corner is technically a retaining wall but I'm counting that as a container of some sorts because it's not very big. There was an existing hydrangea at the very corner of the boards there it will have white blooms but is not quite there yet, so we punched it up with some variegated foliage plants. We added the hosta, and the ( geranium style leave). We also added the large japonica in the pit just for height for the party so it's still in its pot.
