This is my entry for the Picture This Photo Contest offered by Gardening Gone Wild
Living in upstate New York doesn’t make it easy to have container gardens in May. We had a hard frost just two nights ago. I put my plants in the next day though because the weather is supposed to be nice for the next week. I like to live dangerously! It’s Memorial Day this weekend, it should be safe by now. Thanks for the opportunity to participate. Plants and pictures are two of my favorite things. Happy Spring!
Flowers in the yellow pot are geraniums, coleus, dianthus, lobelia, red mandevilla vine

mind blowing pictures.the nature gives us so much beautiful gifts in the form of flowers.i don’t understand why people wanted the artificial things from their loved ones when the most beautiful things are present in the form of flowers.so i can say gift the flowers your loved ones and in return you surely get their love and support..
Thank you Sue. I couldn’t agree more about flowers as gifts. They are a sure thing on my list of favorite gifts!
So many people now do have the skills to provide what flowers need. Even florists seem to be terrirble. My husband brought a lovely present for me which was the largest flower bouquet I have seen.
They died afte 2 days and I was so upset.
