Now’s the time for container gardens

It’s been busy. Have been working on floor plans for a new house. Mayron and I are trying to find the perfect fabric for a bedroom redo. In between, I have been desperately trying to win the battle of weeds in my flower beds. Sad to say I never win. As soon as I get one area cleaned out, more little weed plants start popping up. The best we do is keep them at bay for a short period of time. But, this time of year they (the weeds) are prolific little guys. We’ve had some beautiful days here, though, and it’s got me thinking of lovely plants and flowers. I really love various types of containers filled and overflowing with flowering plants and greenery. I, especially, love vintage ones. I have to confess, though, I’ve only gotten as far as finding pictures of some very pretty container gardens. So, that’s what I’m sharing with you….hopefully to spur me on to getting some actually planted up.
How about you? How’s your gardening going?

Hope you are inspired to go plant a flower! I am, but first, I still hear weeds calling my name.
Enjoy the springtime!!

I love the two urns flanking the red door. And the planter in the last picture is really stunning!!
Our perennials are all popping out of the ground now, and some of the tulips have buds. Can’t wait to get colour back in the gardens
