Ideas for Planter Fillers

Hanging Plants

Our artificial hanging plants aren’t just for hanging baskets. They are also a great addition to planters and urns. The cascading vines of artificial flowers drape over the sides for a romantic and traditional effect. Many of the artificial hanging plants in our selection also offer coordinating bushes, allowing you to create a full and colorful look that cascades over the sides but stands taller in the center. If you want to elevate the look even more, put a tree or topiary in the center and arrange hanging plants around the edges.

Artificial Flowers

When you love flowers, there is nothing quite like displaying a beautiful flowering bush such as this geranium. A few flowering bushes like this are a great addition to a planter box. Not only do they introduce a color to the space, but they also give off the impression that you are constantly maintaining your flower beds.

Yuccas & Palms

Palms and yucca plants are a great choice for big planters. They are a little more contemporary than traditional floral bushes and add a bit of an architectural style to the overall style. You can get the same kind of look with a little more color by planting bromeliads instead.
