Just in case my morning glory vine does not grow up the big arbor, I decided to plant my wall pocket containers. I doubled them up on the big arbor.
Before long these inside walls will be completely covered in orange/purple/chartreuse. I put orange petunias and a dark sweet potato vine (ipomoea) on both top sections.
The lower sections have purple petunias and chartreuse ipomoea.
If the blue Morning Glories decide to grow this year, I think they will look fine with this color combo. If not, I can just unwire the baskets and move them to the deck.
The smaller arbor is planted with blue salvia and a yellow/green vinca vine. I left space on the side to add something else if I see anything interesting. This spot is pretty shady, so perhaps a nice coleus...
Let the Basting Begin!

I am using my dining room table to baste this big one -- it's about 105 x
105 inches (king size).
It's been a while since I've finished one this big.

Looks good Zoey. I love the sweet potato vines, but they never do well for me here. The colour combos are striking.
