Mums are beautiful and very easy to care for. Bonus, many varieties can be planted in the ground after you've enjoyed them in your patio pots--then you can enjoy them for years to come! The plant that keeps on giving!

When planting, you’ll want to drill some holes in the bottom of the trash can for drainage. I also like to fill the bottom with light packing material, cardboard, or whatever you have on hand to help fill some of the space so you don’t have to fill the whole thing with dirt.
