new love



as some old favourites begin to bud and bloom...peony.



white clematis


calibrachoa



large blotch pansy



red hot geraniums


chive blooms


oregano

there is still room in my heart for new loves.
one of my local garden centers is on the way to lots of things.
picking up kids from work, the grocery store, target, tractor supply.

i pass by it quite often...today i just couldn't do it again without stopping in.

so i thought i really need more hellebores...they didn't have any.
i was not really surprised but they had plenty of other goodies.

yarrow 'terra cotta'
coleus 'twist and twirl'
coleus 'pink chaos'
petunia 'bravo blue veined'
creeping jenny 'red'
osteospermum 'daisy side show copper yellow'
weeping loropetalum 'purple pixie'


i don't think i have ever bought a container already planted
but i loved this combination and i am moving more
toward containers because of all the dogs we have around here.

lavender pentas
dark blue petunias
dracaena spike
a soft green fuzzy leafed trailing vine, silver mist licorice
the tiny white flower...not sure.


it was nice having something ready to just put out in the garden.

happy april planting.
