It's like solving a puzzle in your mind which plants go with others and how it will look.

But I have a solution. Just memories this simple magic formula for purchasing plants : Thriller , Spiller , Filler.

Don't worry, it's just based on how you select plants that create the right foliage that you want.

Thriller plants are Eye catchers , Spillers are plants hanging out of the containers and Filler plants add texture,color and structure.

If you are selecting a thriller plant that needs direct sunlight you need spillers and filler also that can thrive in full sun.

If you want to create a permanent display look for the species that grows together in the wild.

Not only you have to focus on plants but containers too, it should be deep with drainage holes.

[{"selector":"#anim-16fdc801-11b1-46c0-a5ac-900bc3a92409 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-772244c5-17d9-4b11-9a5d-0ed1126e816f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Photo Credit :- Pinterest

Start creating a layout to understand how it will appear after the arrangement.

First start with thrillers as a focal point then with spillers so they can hang freely then fillers to fill the gaps to give a lush look to your container garden.
