I am so loving the wreaths. Thanks for those pictures Holly.

Just came in for a break, some juice and PB toast I realized that I haven't eaten yet when I started to run out of steam. Was looking for the Longwood pics I know there are some nice shots in that group but I can't find them. Well back outside. I'm suppost to shop for the party today and take plant up to my Parents so I need to get moving.

Those are really nice! Fill out in a hurry when you use big succulents.

Went on a garden tour yesterday. Look what was laying in a pond.

Thats a nice one! Lots of different kinds of plants. I'll have to try adding some sedum to mine. Thanks for the idea!

The larger patches of green was irish moss. It was a nice addition too.

Susan, do you know how they kept the semps for being to wet?
Would you mind adding that to the Container Database? That is such an unusual way to display semps, over water. Very interesting and pretty.

Very close on the ponds edge but not actually in the water. I'm guessing maybe they staged it there for the tour then moved it to a dryer location but I can't be sure. At the time I thought wow I didn't know you could put those plants in a wet area (oh duh, you probably can't).

Good detective work Susan.

Kinda like when they take the bathroom doors off in model homes to make the rooms seem larger.....LOL!

They do that? I didn't know that Janet.

I love garden tours---such great places to get ideas and see new plants. But I've learned to take my Sunset Garden Book along as a sanity check.
Regardless of where they put it, that succulent wreath is a real beaut. I just wonder if it was laying down because none of the plants were rooted in time for the tour---that's what I would have done!!

Did ya'll notice the one lone semp in the water, to the right. Sha baby, it must have fallen off.

Oh my gosh Debbie. Can you call them and have some one sent out to rescue it?

They don't swim, do they? Perhaps a nearby gnome might help.....

You know they could really improve their image if some one caught them with a camera saving that poor little semp.

It does look newly planted, so I bet they aren't all rooted in yet. It really is a nice one!

Love the gnome comments!

It is beautiful little arrangement, whatever it is.
