Outdoor Autumn Display

I moved my handcart-turned-into-display-cart by the fish pond for an autumn display. It also filled an empty spot after pulling out the petunias that were there for the summer. This display is seen from both sides of this flower bed.

I had the star for several years displayed outdoors but the paint didn't hold up well. I scraped the loose paint off, exposing the rust and leaving a lovely patina for this vignette. I prefer ornamental kale over mums (unless I want more of them) as the kale lasts longer and the color and deeper gets lovelier in the autumn chill. It also can handle light frosts...altogether a lovely decorative plant. I'm pleased with this display!
