A Meadow Urn

In the heat of high summer, it can be difficult to keep statement-making containers from withering away in the sun. The beat-the-heat planting above uses meadow-inspired grasses and foliage as its main ingredients, which fare better during the dog days than their more delicate, flowering counterparts. Set against a crisp, white urn and cool greens, pops of Echinachea ‘Aloha’ and Coreopsis ‘Sienna Sunset’ keep the arrangement feeling playful. This combination is also a favorite for butterflies, so your planter will invite even more color into the garden. Read on for a list of all the components you’ll need to bring this planter into your own backyard!
