Garden Update




Comparing the previous impatiens photo to this one, you'll notice that the flowers have overgrown the pots and steps. They like this spot!

This other photo is one example of the geraniums in pots line the front of the house. I love the "pop" of bright color that draws your eye up to the house.

Cosmos are one of my favorites. I plant them every year, along with other butterfly-friendly flowers.

  3. Thanks for the kind words. It's really not to hard. Pour dirt into a pot with good drainage. Add a good organic fertilzer, such as compost. And plant! I check my containers every day so they don't dry out. Best wishes!

  4. I totally agree to put compost to your plants to make it healthier. I love cosmos too and I want them in different colors. I don’t have the violet cosmos like yours. If only I can get some to you then plant it to my garden. Lol. But I really enjoy your post!
