My wife is very creative and has a knack for adding significant color to our back yard palette. This is a planter she fell in love with at our local garden center and carefully directed me to fill it with flowers that accent planter and create an interesting color scheme.
Here's my attempt to be creative. Notice that everything is orange or nearly orange. This planter makes me think of orange creamsicles or push pops I used to eat when I was a kid.
This is another interesting collection designed by my wife. It's flowering very well. I especially like the flame flowers and how they interact with the pinks from the impatiens and the coleus.
This is a planter I built last year and filled with geraniums. I forgot to fill the drain holes this year (I noticed it got very dry last year) so the flowers had a rough start. There are several blossoms ready to open now, though. I'll get another picture shortly. In the meantime, who's that two headed ghost in my garage?
This is a planter that I picked out. It belonged to my wife's mother. We brought it here after her passing and I planted this red and white mix. The allysum has nearly filled the container and the geranium is ready to send out a bunch of new blossoms.
