Colors Around My Yard

My beautiful pansies on the front porch.

 My Dianthus coming back from last year.

 My wild Violets in the back yard.

More Violets and Periwinkle.

And two pretty red tulips that I brought in from the yard. Stay safe and stay in. This too
will pass.

Spring Plantings

I feel that it is finally Spring, the days are getting warmer, the nights are staying in the forties.
It is time to start planting my urns, planters and my hanging baskets.

I went to Walmart and Lowe's and bought some pretty plants to fill the area around my porch.
I over purchased, so the extra Dianthus went into the beds in the front of the house.

This is a planting from last year, it is either a Pincushion flower or Bachelors Button, we will see
when it blooms.

Impatients and Dianthus in planters around the porch, by June they will be full and colorful.

Red Geraniums in the hanging baskets on the front of the porch.

Last years Day Lilies coming back in the insulated urns and more impatients.

In my big metal urn I planted Snapdragons, Verbena, and Dainthus. This will be beautiful
in a couple of weeks. Spring has sprung.

Good Bye Spring, Hello Summer

A bunch of my short lived flowers from my yards, this is before the heat wave.

I am hanging on to my pansies just a little bit longer.

My hanging baskets from the Waynesboro garden Center.

My Hydrangeas coming up along with the seeds I put in the ground.

Mature gardens with Columbine coming back.

Pictures of my sitting areas on the porch.

My veggie garden.

Hostas, Lily of the Valley and more Columbine coming back in side garden beds.

My flower garden in the back yard with mature plants returning and new plants that I
put in the ground like Snapdragons, Yarrow, Dianthus and Salvia.

Even though we never really had a Spring, we are getting some good rain storms to feed
my gardens.

My Farmhouse Porch and Garden Beds

Here is a sneak at my farmhouse front porch, this house is in the city,
I pretend that it is on a farm because it has a big yard with a garden shed
and a huge garage. Here is my heavy, large urn filed with what I bought for
my self for Mother's Day.

 Mint, Rosemary, Dusty Miller, Impatient and Delphinium. My small urns on pedestals
by the front door with a sun hardy impatient.

My hanging baskets from Martens with fragrant Petunias and Verbena.

Flowers and foliage that I brought my last house that have come back this Spring.

Hydrangea and Snapdragons replanted.

I had two Dianthus plants, only one made it.

A Pincushion I planted in the ground this spring. And things I planted from seed from
the Wild Flower Seed Company.

Cosmos and baby Snapdragons

More pictures as things develop.
