We're finally getting warm weather here so I was able to get some flowers planted. This beat up urn planter now holds a ground cover rose, white alyssum, blue lobelia, one of my blue glass decor balls and my painted flag sign. This urn will look GORGEOUS once everything fluffs up and fills in. I'll post pics when it does. Here's a bunch of photos from this morning, including the hummingbirds at their breakfast. Enjoy!
I love your garden balls in the planter. I have a patriotic planter (with a flag), or 2 actually, but the flowers are purple white and orange.

ReplyDeleteLove your ideas! I love the orbs you created!
ReplyDeleteHi Ann,
ReplyDeleteI had to come over and take a look at your hummers. The ones in my yard are very territorial. They almost never drink at the same time. I love your blue garden orbs! They look gorgeous!
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteyou have beautiful flowers and I love the glass pebble ball, very creative!
Love the play of the glass balls and the different textures. I'm no gardener at all, but I really want to plant some alyssum. It's just so sweet and lacey.
ReplyDeleteWould love for you to stop by and link it up Thursday to Fab Finds for the 4th!
That is so pretty! I love the look of it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers in urn and I am liking the cobalt blue orb. I actually made one with what I thought would look like sea glass (marbles). I had no idea what to do with the orb...now I do...put it with my plants. Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers! Happy 4th of July!!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely. Everything looks so inviting, your flag, the tin of flowers. The pebbled gazing ball is fun.

When you said "it is finally getting warm around here" I just knew you must be in Oregon too. Hasn't it been wonderful?
