I love fall at The Planter’s Palette. The mums are bursting with color and the pumpkins are freakishly fabulous!

We have the very best selection of specialty pumpkins in Chicagoland. From Knucklehead pumpkins to Lunch Lady gourds and the French Gauleux d’ Eysines to Rascal (a pink pumpkin bred specifically to raise funds for cancer research), we have the perfect pumpkins to decorate your doorsteps, decks and patios.

If you’d like to see photos of just some of the different types of pumpkins available at The Planter’s Palette, visit our Photo Gallery.

And, of course, we have everything else you need to decorate your home for fall – inside and out. Come and check out our displays – they’ll delight and inspire you!

Fall is fun in the garden at The Planter’s Palette!

Fresh produce is picked daily from our vegetable gardens. Sweet corn, peppers (green, yellow and jalapeno), zucchini, eggplant, kohlrabi, and garlic is available right now. The heat is delaying the tomatoes, but they will be ready soon!

This year’s Perennial Festival, Garden Lifestyles, begins Saturday, June 23 and continues through Sunday, July 8. Our creative staff has created 14 different gardens throughout the garden center celebrating the ways people like to live in their outdoor spaces. From the Conifer Garden and Herb Garden to the Shady Oasis and the Giggle Garden, you will enjoy each and every one.
