Custom Container Display

Geraniums are back in a big way—and if you don’t already love them, this recipe might just change your mind.

Our Classic Geranium with Bold Accents design is full of texture, movement, and rich color. Geraniums are known for their vibrant blooms and resilience—they love the sun and don’t mind a little dry soil. That’s what makes them a container favorite!

This eye-catching container recipe includes:

  • Geraniums: Big, bright, and bold—this is your main attraction.
  • Kimberly Queen Fern: Upright, lush green texture that plays well with color.
  • Algerian Ivy: Deep green, trailing ivy that softens the edge.
  • Spanish Lavender: A pollinator favorite with purple flower spikes and a lovely scent.
  • Purple Pansies or Supertunias: Choose your texture and tone—both give rich purple hues.
  • Dark Leaf Dracaena Spike: Adds height and drama with striking foliage.

Plant this design in a large container and place it somewhere sunny. It’s made to impress and easy to care for. Whether you’re dressing up your front porch or gifting a container to a friend, this one delivers classic charm with fresh energy.
