The first thing that you notice in this idea is the bright orange pumpkin that is positioned right in the front center of the planter, which makes it a perfect idea for the month of October. The second item that catches my eye is the planter itself. It features a beautiful bowl-like shape that looks slightly discolored from age.

The planters in this image are a beautiful slate grey. The two side ones feature lush green plants that lay over the top of the planter, and the middle one is full of purple pansies that are in full bloom. The textured design on the middle container is gorgeous as well.

Using a basket as a planter can be a great way to reuse baskets. This large planter is filled with purple and orange flowers and plants with a lot of uniquely shaped leaves. There are three medium size pumpkins in front of the flowers and a bit of tall grass in the back.

This idea uses pumpkins, gourds, and shades of orange to create a beautiful fall design that would look great in any garden. The arrangement is placed in a lovely cream cement fountain that gives it height, and there are evergreen trees in the background that tie it all together beautifully.

6. Autumn Flower Peacock

The planter in this image had a lovely roman inspired design that adds a sense of elegance to the design. The plants that are placed in the raised planter are leafy variations that have a lot of autumn coloration.

If you like pumpkins, then this next idea is perfect for you. The planter is actually a large orange pumpkin that is filled with gorgeous orange flowers. It is perfect for your garden during the Halloween season, and you can even incorporate this idea into a path of jack-o-lanterns.

8. Five Shades of Maroon

The first aspect of this design that catches your eye is the magnificent maroon coloration of the leaves. The traditional green leaves can also be seen, and they create a contrast of colors that is out of this world. In addition, the container features a delicately crosshatched design that makes it an even more interesting idea.

9. Shades of Fall with Lavender Accents

The idea in the next image features a potted plant that is wild and untamed. It is a stone planter that is filled with orange, yellow, and lavender miniature flowers that bloom from small narrow stems. The design looks a little outlandish, but it is charming nonetheless.

10. The Happy Scarecrow

The large clay planter in this image has a lot of leafy green plants inside it. This design would be perfect for a large garden; looking in the background a lot of other plants can be seen. In the middle of the main planter, there is a small scarecrow that will be perfect for fall.

11. Hot Tamale

The next idea is a great one for fall. Fall is the time for harvest, so having a garden full of ornamental cabbage and peppers is perfect. They can be planted in a bright red pot, as seen in the image, to create a beautiful color contrast with the green leaves.

12. A Soft Purple Hue

The plants in the next image have leaves that feature light green tops and plum colored bottoms. On some of the leaves, you can see the purple hue from above. These plants would make a lovely boarder around a garden.

13. Flower a Plenty

The flower presentation in this next image is rather stunning. There are a lot of red and orange flowers that are placed closely together in rustic-looking planters. The flowers are perfectly trimmed, but the flower pots are a bit worn, which gives them a beautiful antique look.

14. Gourd your Daisies

The large gourd in the middle of this basket planter is perfect for the season. Fall is not all about orange colored pumpkins, and this idea shows this gourd at its best. There are also white daisies in the basket to brighten up the basket and add some contrast to the green leaves.

15. Succulent Heaven

Succulents are perfect for cooler weather, and arranging them in a large clay pot like the one seen here can give you a lot of options. The clay pot is not perfect, but the imperfections in it add to the design.

16. Bringing Brightness back to Fall

The first thing of notice in the next idea is the brightly colored flowers, but the planter is the real prize to look at. It is a cement planter that has green and yellow accents on the surface. It looks old and weather worn, but that is part of its charm.

17. Happy Red Medium

This idea has everything. The colorful miniature blooms are red, yellow, orange, pink, and purple. The planter features a square cement style that has a smile-like design on the side that makes it look as if the plant is smiling at you.

Using a pumpkin as a planter is not a new idea on this list, but placing succulents inside of them isn’t an option that we’ve considered previously. This design features an exquisite combination of plants that could be a great garden addition.
