Wishing you all a good weekend!
Isn't that the cutest container!
I found it at a garden center and with my husband's past having grown up on a diary farm I couldn't resist it. It's actually ceramic. They finished it so nicely you'd think it was metal! I chose petunias because I felt they have the right country casual look I wanted.
In the center I put one of those new Supertunias. They look just like the New Guinea Impatiens except they can take full sun.
See the white flowers in the center- and this one comes with variegated leaves. It should get taller and fuller and be a nice combo as the summer kicks in. The Lysimachia (Creeping Jenny or Moneywort) will drape along the sides and cozy it up!
I'l be planting a few more things and trying to get more done outside this weekend. Hope yours is grand!
Great container - so unique and I love the color :-)
ReplyDeleteLiz, what a gorgeous arrangement! xoxo
