Add vibrant, lasting color to your railing planters with our premium faux flower bundles, specially crafted for outdoor use. Whether your planter is in full shade, exposed to harsh weather, or you're simply looking for a low-maintenance solution, gearsolutions offers beautiful, DIY UV-rated floral arrangements designed to elevate your curb appeal all year long.
Why Faux Flowers for Railing Planters?
Faux flowers are the perfect choice for:
• Hard-to-water railing planters
• Balconies and decks with limited sunlight
• High-exposure areas with wind, rain, or extreme heat
• Gardeners seeking a maintenance-free option that always looks fresh
Our UV-protected outdoor artificial flowers are built to last. Unlike indoor silk arrangements, these are made with UV inhibitors embedded in the plastic, preventing fading, cracking, and wear from sun and weather exposure.
Pre-Measured Faux Flower Recipes
We’ve taken the guesswork out of designing your railing planter. Our team has tested and created floral “recipes” that fit perfectly into standard railing planter sizes. For instance, we know that four UV-rated geraniums fill a 48" railing planter with lush, full color and balance. You can order these bundles separately or combine them with one of our rail-mounted window boxes for a complete display.
How to Install Faux Flowers in a Railing Planter
Installing your faux flower display is easy and effective:
1. Prep the Planter- Set your railing planter on a stable surface, protect your workspace, and put on gloves.
2. Spray Expanding Foam- Shake the can and fill the planter about halfway. The foam will expand to form a secure base.
3. Allow to Cure- Let the foam fully expand and harden—typically takes 8–12 hours.
4. Add a Realistic Top Layer- Brush wood glue over the foam and sprinkle Spanish moss, soil, or castings for a lifelike finish.
5. Insert the Faux Stems- Drill or poke holes where needed. Add glue to each stem and press into the base for a secure hold.
Pro Styling Tips
• Choose UV-rated artificial flowers for outdoor durability
• Vary stem heights to create a layered, natural look
• Place taller blooms toward the back, trailing greens up front
• Leave space for seasonal accents or themed decor
With faux flower bundles from gearsolutions, you can enjoy the beauty of a thriving railing planter—without the watering, pruning, or replanting. Explore our curated bundles and give your railings the colorful, long-lasting upgrade they deserve.
