How you have tucked them amongst the peonies is very clever. They will be striking when the the peonies are displaying their fragrant, voluptuous blooms! Happy gardening!

It was on your show, wasn't it? You went to the place where they were made. I think I remember when you bought those urns. It was on your show, wasn't it? You went to the place where they were made.

These two giants,silently say,look what we've got. Planted by Martha's green thumb,we will look so grand Our soil caressed by her own dear hand. The purple plant Eucomis,with slightly ruffled edges, aka "Rhode Island Red" with three foot leaves like ledges. Jagged leaf plant, in and out this mini maze Why it's Melianthus major, the "purple haze". Felted foliage,green on top with purple undersides Brought from Maine,the favorite Kalanchoe,hides Around the ornamental pepper,Capsicum black pearl Bright orange/red coleus, with yellow highlights twirl. That captivating smile and peony tip from our enchantress Nip the smallest bud,she says,to relieve the blooming stress. And you may be sure,that late of night Wee whisperers,hidden from mortal sight Will do their dance,by light of moon And stand in defiance,of some laughing loon. They kindly add the peace and cheerful sound We share,when in a garden we are found. Beautiful planted urns,stand sentinel to the veggie plot.

Flowers bloom, fade and are replaced by something new giving us constant variation on a theme. I posted photos of the flowers in my gardens on my blog too. http://potsnpies.blogspot.com What is so addicting about garden is how it brings freshness and change to daily living.

You sure look like you are having a great time. How relaxing!! I have been doing a lot of outdoor planting and repotting in various containers since the weather has improved to almost summer like lately. My favorite pots are the ones I got at K Mart. Unfortunately they are running out of your garden products. Will you ever have any available elsewhere?! I hope!! I hope!! I love your urns. How tall are they? I would estimate 3 feet or more. Thanks again for sharing. Jan Hi Martha, What a glorious blog on a sunny day about you planting beautiful perennials in those fantastic urns!! You sure look like you are having a great time.

I am also starting to appreciate "black" foliage. Here in L.A., drought-friendly options like Aeonium schwartkopf would work well. Your love of urns is also inspiring--those shots of the agaves in those stately urns changed my whole view of agaves. thanks as always! I am loving the dark foliage theme here.
