These beauties are on the east side of my house. When we had our landscaping done, they put alot of barrels around the house. I usually like putting petunia's in them because the colors are so pretty and they bloom so much. This year I tried doing some different colors. This one is full of pink and purple, as well as some herbs.
These are the herbs that I planted in back. Gary made one of these planters for me, and Ila & Ellis made the other one. It's about time to repaint them I think...
These are the barrels in front of the garage and by the front step. The ones in front of the garage were supposed to be red/white/blue. Robin's the only one that even noticed that. Usually I put flags out, and I wanted that theme to carry through. The one by the front step is the purple/white theme.
Tomorrow I'll share the flowers in front of the shop....more barrels.
I love flowers, and when they put the gravel around the house I was very disappointed that I wouldn't be able to plant tons, but I've actually loved the barrels. It contains the flowers into bright spots. It is a little spendy replanting every year, but...it works out. It gives Jeff and the kids something to give me for Mother's Day. Love those gift certificates to Viki's.
