My Tiny PlotLightening the Mood
Occasionally, I go a bit mad and grow some flowers. It usually ends badly but these dark red Geraniums I just couldn’t resist. Maybe it’s because they’re exactly the same colour as my watering can? Or maybe it’s all the patriotism is in the air. I don’t know. I just know that my morning cup of coffee on my garden bench is a little bit nicer because of them.
looking good! and I like the box too
Very cool look. I have a couple of old crates or boxes similiar to those, just a bit bigger. I think I will use them in the same way.
Thanks for the great idea.
Lovely writing,but colour combination in between flower and water can is awesome.My garden’s name is little bit different…Himalayan Gardens….You can fine lots of tropical flowers and plants which will make you cup of coffee more exciting…That’s for sure..
Beautiful red water can!
Love the red watering can, geranium and box combination its up my street.
Beautiful. I think flowers make a world of difference, whether just ornamental or to attract pollinators. Good for you!
Good idea. I like the box!
When I was growing up my mum used to have bright red geraniums all round the conservatory windowsill. They were lovely and cheerful but the air was blue one day when she sat on some of the petals in a pair of white trousers!!!
I have some of those in my yard. They’re virtually indestructible! If it looks dead, water it. It’ll probably come back. Want more? Cut off a bit of stem with a leaf & put it in a new pot.
If you plant them in the ground, be sure to trim them back in the fall or they’ll pretty much take over.
Avoid putting trimmings in compost, or you may find them sprouting there… even if it was just an inch piece of stem!
