This year I had the greatest success I've ever had with planting flowering pots.
We have so much more to do to make our house and yard just the way we want it, but these pots were an accessible way to draw attention away from everything that is not perfect about our surroundings. I see this pot every time I look out the back door.
The pots above and below greet us when we come home. The secret to such abundant pots, I'm now convinced, is time release granular fertilizer. Osmocote makes one that you can apply at the beginning of the summer and you're good to go for the whole season.
I promise there is a pot under there somewhere.
This little gem is an African Daisy. Its my favorite type of flower in the front yard pots.
I love the fuchsia to orange gradation. Too bad they don't do well as cut flowers.
