I am forcing myself to thoroughly clean each room of my house. Then I will give myself permission to play outside. I must confess, I went out twice today and planted two different containers. I will take a photo of the other one tomorrow when I get home from work. Smiling

How on earth did I miss this thread ? I love all the newly planted containers. The "pot heads " are great.

Our deck is changing. Hot Tub gave up the ghost last winter so now its going to be a fire pit. This means re arranging the containers on that side.

I plane to pix when its daylight. Back at cha then.
Here we go

The planters will be taken out of the pit and seating will go along the edge. It will take me days to figure out how to redecorate that section of the deck.

We need back rests built along the edge and drink holders to complete the scene.

I like that the planter is triangular very neat.
I know you have seen my mini garden, just wanted to show you it is blooming

I have two of these hanging on each side of the porch, looks like this one needs straightening.

I planted this last year and gave it to my neighbor. She wanted to know what was wrong with it. Didn't know that they can bloom.
