I know you've all been sitting on the edge of your seats waiting for an update on my festive summer planter I showed you in mid-May.
Because you all have nothing better to do this summer 🙂
It's been coming along.
Then:
Now:
The plants are:
Canna - Tropical Rose - full sun - grows to be 18-30" tall
Supertunia - Pretty Much Picasso - full sun - trailing habit and 8-12" tall
Coral Bells (Heuchera) - Harvest Burgundy - part sun (4-6 hrs per day) - 12" tall
Can you see my pink flamingos in the background?
Those are the ones the dogs bought me for Mother's Day. Still loving the pink little guys.
What's better than a bird who sits still for photos? And doesn't poop all over your porch?

Love the supertunia and the heuchera together.

Yay! I was able to leave a comment.
I have tried for several days to comment on your posts, for some reason it wouldn't work.
Today ~~ success !

Love the way your planter is flourishing! That's exactly what planters are supposed to do in the Summer 🙂
Love that petunia. I planted one like it, but mine is not as lush as yours . Hoping it will be 🙂
Have a great weekend!!

I love those petunias, and the Flamingos. My precious nephews bought me a couple for our anniversary but they have faded in the sun. I plan on finding some flamingo pink spray paint and brighten them up.

What a great combination! Love the heuchera's purple leaves against the brightness of the supertina.

I love seeing how crazy planters can go! I bought that same Petunia with the green edges--thought it was so different. Mine are growing like mad too!

A fine job you have done.
Everyone should be so lucky
to have a bird like yours!

I have those same petunias in 2 of my planters and mine look like the wind has torn them to bits. Maybe it has! Yours have already matured into a beautiful arrangement. Could you send a little sun my way, please?
I just found a vintage straw purse with sequin flamingos on the front. 🙂
