Flower Gardening

It's a beautiful day and I'm thinking about flower gardening. Are you into flowers? What do you like, annuals or perennials?

This year I'm limited to container gardening as I don't have a flower bed. I have a patio where I'll put most of the containers with annuals. I like to go with a patriotic theme of colors in my main focal point. I'll use red geraniums, white petunias and blue alysum. The other pots I'll mix things up and use marigolds, verbina, pansies and varigated greenery. I might try a potted cherry tomato and a pepper plant with some salad greens for filler. I have to wait a week or so to make sure the frost period is over before I get started. It should be fun. Happy planting!
