I have a couple new planted containers.

The first I commissioned at a local nursery and the second Coleus Collection I am still working on.

Thanks everyone, I am just concerned that the wind does not tear up the coleus. Also we often
get a hail storm or two in June. Last year it really knocked out a bunch of plants. I am continuing to hope for the best.

I think it could be pretty spectacular when it fills out with the dragon wing, later in the summer.

You are all so encouraging, I appreciate ATP so much. I tip my hat to you. I tip my hat to you.

Yep, finally getting things in pots, but now I keep moving them around trying to decide what gives the best views to the

neighbors and the walkers-by. I think I have gone overboard again, but it is really fun.

Wish I could get a birds eye view but nothing I can climb up on. I drag thems on and off the patio too. Still lotsa work to do.

I could use Jo-Ann to come for a visit, she is such an artist with container gardening.

Yes, I have some begonia and coleus to go in those. Must go buy more soil first, however.

Also have a couple of hangers on the patio that needs some bright color. They will be the last to be planted.

Now I am off to Lowe's. Pray for my self-control. No more plants until I get what I have done.

Thank you, That is the front entrance area,

Mostly cleaned up view from the front door. I have two of those bridge planters and I love them. I bring them out to this area some years, others I use them on the patio.

Here is a sneak peek at the patio. so much work to still do out there to get things cleaned up and
