What a Difference Two Weeks can Make!

On June 25, I posted the picture of this canna container bemoaning it's small size.

Well, look at it today! This should be proof that size does matter!

It has really taken off and I am so much happier with it.

Here are a few pictures of feverfew blooming. It's one of those plants that reseeds itself all over and I pull handfuls of it out all the time.

You can never get it all, which is a good thing because I do love the tiny white flowers when it's in bloom. I never know just where it will pop up from year to year.
I must have bought some more red carpet day lilies last year because I have some blooming on the Arbor Garden path (By the time summer arrives, I can never remember what I planted in the fall).


Here is a picture of one of the deck wall planters that is not doing so well. I am hoping to shame it into production like I did the big canna container.


Maybe in two weeks this one will be big and beautiful. I don't want to see any of the front of the container and the geraniums should be at least twice as big. I am not a big geranium fan. I can never get them to grow big and beautiful. I only bought these because flower varieties were very limited this year and I needed that orange color.

Let's hope they surprise me this year.
