Planted.. Planted ... and Planted...

LOML (love of my life) and I started out early this am... We went to 3 nurseries, 2 truck bed's full of plants... and we planted .. and planted. I planted hanging baskets, more hanging baskets, clay pots.. I do not want to plant any more till Fall! This fat girl is tired! This is the sun drop! These are wonderful, love full sun and come back every year. We have them planted in the ground on the front of the house. Let me tell you..
LOML planted 8 hostas, 3 ruffled ferns, 5 sun drops, a huge box of wildflowers, a flat of caladium (24). I planted the baskets- here is what I planted, trailing antique roses, new wonder, petunia', silver dragon, blooming rosemary, asparagus fern,lemon coral, and several pots of fringed lavender. I always plant a herb with each one of my hanging baskets and pots. Today I planted pineapple sage, oregano, basil, choclate mint, and lavender. I love, love the smell of all of these. It's so refreshing to give them a little swish when out in the garden.. I use the basil for homemade pizza! Yummy!
Hope you all had a great Saturday!
