It's Planting Time...

I think I am going to flower shop today. It seems to truly be  Spring now. So I can't wait to plant some thing, anything . :):)  Of course this isn't what is outside yet. This is from last Summer in town, at Jean's Plants.
 If I do get things for my containers, I will get photos. I love seeing pictures of flowers on everyone's blogs. The color, the choices, the containers themselves. Where people put their containers, such as , the porch, the steps, patios, walkways. It's interesting to me. Plus very inspiring. Wishing all of you a beautiful Saturday.  xo

    1. Linda, I wish you luck with the transplants too. I don't know why I never start things inside. It could be so simple, in old egg cartons.xoxo,Susie

  5. We still have a month before we can plant here. I did by pansies because they are supposed to be able to stand the cold. I had them under cover but last weeks cold and snow killed even them. booo. Nothing like a trip to the garden centers to brighten your day. Happy Easter.

    1. I am not a good gardener...just keep trying. I always say , it has to be hardy around me or it'll die. I grow mums and pachysandra, two of the hardiest things I know so far. xoxo,Susie
