Let’s Refresh a Geranium Planter

Do you have a geranium planter that needs a makeover?  Let me show you how easy it is to refresh a geranium planter!

I had a little spare thyme so I decided to give these two red geranium pots a quick makeover! Both plants were in need of a good deadheading.  

Refresh A Geranium Planter

Before:

Red zonal geranium ready to be refreshed

Red geranium and diamond snow ready to be refreshed

I had purchased two Red Rooster grass plants when I traveled out of state. I am not sure why this type of grass is so hard to find in Florida!   (The TSA agents were a bit confused as to why I had two plants wrapped in a plastic bag and stuffed in my backpack! )  I added one of the Red Roosters to each pot and also planted a small Diamond Snow as an accent.

I love how the grass adds some motion and height to the patio pot.  The white Diamond Snow acts as a filler plant.  Below is a close up of how the grass adds a wispy accent to the planter.

After I was finished refreshing the planters, I gave them a good drink of water and set them in a shady spot to recover.

Here is how one of the planters looked after a month:
