10 Spring Container Garden Ideas

Clever Use of Perennials

Using perennials (i.e. plants that come back every year) in your spring containers ensures your arrangements look good across multiple seasons. If the perennials get too big, simply transplant them into your garden. Divide perennials in spring so you’ll have more to transplant in your garden and share with family and friends.

The Grape Timeless heuchera at the center of this container by @ssgibbs1102 shows off new growth during spring. Bright green creeping jenny and delicate pansies surround the purple leafy plant. In summer, tall stems with tiny pink flowers will emerge from the purple leaves.

Bird Nest

This cheerful spring container garden by @stacymosesfloraldesigns grows in an oversized bird nest! Achieve the same look by using a grapevine wreath at the base of your arrangement, and Spanish moss to fill in any gaps. The pussy willow branches add height while the scabiosa, also known as pincushion flowers, delivers the color.

Long and Low

The dimensions of the planter in this container garden by @ladydifloralgarden make it perfect to place almost anywhere. The thin white branches provide height and a little drama.

The other plants include euphorbia, pansies, alyssum, coral bells, creeping jenny and lamium. Combined, they create a versatile mini garden.
