How to create colourful Autumn planters

The most important thing about planting autumn planters is timing, if you wait until October to make up your planters, then you will find its too cold for the plants to grow. The answer is to buy fully grown plants in flower, using plenty of plants to fill the planter. If you can think ahead and have 2 sets of pots you can plant them in August or early September, this gives them plenty of time to grow.
