Boxes and pallets combined with seasonal fruits and flowers
Flower pots usually decorate the patio, but how about displaying them in the middle of the garden instead? But instead of just randomly placing them on the lawn, you canwith the help of palletsand display wooden boxes even better.
By stacking them, you can create a decoration at several heights. You can also add any baskets and fill them with flowers or pumpkins, apples and other autumnal elements.

Zinc tub with autumn flowers as an autumn decoration in the garden

It is important that you add drainage before planting so that no backwater forms. This causes the roots to rot, which means the flowers die sooner or later. You can easily create a drainage layer by spreading pebbles or shards of pottery, for example, on the bottom of the zinc tub (feel free to be a little more generous with the thickness of the layer) before filling it with potting soil. Alternatively, you could also drill drainage holes in the floor.
Decorate around trees
It's actually not that rare anymore to place decorations around the tree trunks. It is one of the most popular outdoor ideas. Times areplanted flowers, sometimes planted pots or one or two garden figures. However, you can also redesign these areas for each season and use decorations for this purpose that you can easily replace afterwards.
In the example you can see an idea with numerous pumpkins in different shapes, colors and sizes, combined with flowers in pots and artificial sunflowers. Just pretty, right?
By the way, you could also use other plants in the garden for this idea. If the tree is already occupied or you don't have one that is suitable, you can choose dried-out ornamental grasses or shrubs instead, regardless of whether they are in a bed or in a container.
