Holly you always come up with such attractive containers. Love the combo. My SIL asparagus fern is blooming the sweetest little blooms. I didn't even know they did that.

Pay no attention to the dirty siding and stained chimney. Hopefully I will get the house pressure washed this summer.

Coleus 'sedona' and 'henna', Heuchera, fuschia 'autumnale', Geranium 'Tricolor, purple fountain grass and cordyline 'red Star, and a few impatiens. I put a dark potato vine in the back of the big pot.

Love the fuschia 'autumnale'. What a great use of Heuchera, always surprising to see perennials in mixed planters. Such a nice choice.
Hi JoAnn, I have a few more just need to get a few more pictures.

Spring those are all great choices for those pots. I really love the way the spiky Cordyline 'Red Star' plays off the color in the Geranium 'Tri-Color'.

Holly that hanging basket is really cute, but boy is that drain pipe planting an attention getter.
