A). add more of the same dracaena limbs, and simply make the planter fuller

B). add something else (different varieties) in order to add more color/dept

C). leave it as it is

D). throw it all away, it’s just ugly!




It’s hard to tell from this picture, just how massive this planter really is (weighs close to 100lbs currently, and has an 8’ span).

I was thinking about either adding more dracaenas in order to fill it out, or possibly adding some type of vine to fill-it + add color.

Just looking for interesting suggestions, thanks!!

Small silver bells?
More seriously, I would lift the plant out and put more soil under it, I always fill right to the brim, because I know the level will drop.
A lot of that weight will be the ceramic pot, big pots are heavy. Looking at the panels behind and the paving 8" actually seems conservative, I would have guessed 9 or 10.
Really it is a matter of taste if and what you add, and that is up to you, we can't dictate on taste. If you want suggestions though I would say something low and colourful for contrast, like pansies round the bottom, or marigolds, but maybe the pot is already fancy enough.
