Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a nice Easter weekend. We have had the most wonderful weather here and decided to take advantage of it.
My husband took me to the nicest plant nursery to pick out flowers for our porch. I had never been to this particular nursery and, unfortunately, forgot to bring my camera. I know...."bad blogger"! I was disappointed that I didn't have it because they had so many pretty things to share with you. If I ever go there again, I'll be sure to remember my camera!
I wanted a hanging basket to hang off the front porch beside the stairs. I have a nice hanger there already. So, I opted for this Bougainvillea plant. I was going to transplant it into a nicer hanging basket until I realized it had lots of very sharp thorns in it! So, we just kept it as is.
It will continue to grow and eventually you won't even see the pot that it's in.
Then we found some wave petunias and sweet potato vine to fill the coco basket planters on the porch railing.
All of these plants will spill over the edge of these planters creating a full and colorful basket. (So I'm told.)
I will be sure to show pics as they get fuller.
I really like the colors of the deep purple and white petunias next to the chartreuse green sweet potato vine.
School starts back tomorrow and life will resume as normal (thank goodness). It has been a long, but fun week.
Thanks for stopping by!
