Flower Garden

 Far Guy and I went to town, he waited in the vehicle while I went inside the Greenhouse. 

I found what I wanted...mostly.

We came home and planted...


Most of the flowers I picked out had no blooms which is just perfect for transplanting. 

Red Star Impatiens, a Coral Impatiens, a mix of Impatiens, Salvia Victoria Blue, and some Violas...


The Violas were blooming so happily I couldn't bear to clip their blooms off.   I just smile when I see them!

Impatiens, Pansies and Violas are my favorite flowers. My garden now is not conducive to flowering plants so I have Hostas in it for now. Love the solar lights around the flower bed.

It it makes you smile, it is definitely worth it!

Lovely!
I found a hanging basket of geraniums yesterday that I just could not resist!
Have a blessed day!

Violas are such a cheerful little flower! I have 2 flower pots - one on the front porch with geraniums and one on the back deck with a mix of annuals. There are a couple of perennials in our yard as well. I do have a coleus (sp?) to transplant today before it gets too hot.

My dad used to call them the happy flowers! I do love those and have some in my forest garden too. A fav of mine.

I love your flowers! Can't wait to see them later in the summer too. We went to the greenhouse yesterday afternoon. Not much to choose from after the big weekend, but what we found will be just fine. I have to plant the pots, and husband will plant the tomatoes. Summer is here!

Violas and pansies are also so pretty! The first ones I put out in a container were pansies and they are doing beautifully.

I have very few memories of my grandmother's farm which was sold before I started kindergarten, (I think). One is my mother hiding the children under beds while my dad and grandfather attempted to shoot woodchucks out the window. The other is a tiered concrete planter along the steps to the back door. The bottom tier was always planted with pink petunias and the top tier was pansies, my favorite. I have zero luck with pansies at my house.

I love pansy's they are my favorite.

So beautiful. Do the deer bother them? They have eaten all of my geraniums and pansies in the back yard but so far the ones in front are okay!
Blessings,
Betsy

What a beautiful garden you will have there! I love the assortment of flowers you have chosen and will be looking forward to pictures of them all in bloom!

The fawns ate them last August:)

I have no doubt that they will be blooming soon. Once they are planted in the ground, transplants take off, especially with you warm temps and long daylight hours.

Oh, those violas are a happy lot!

Your warm weather should help them root in some more. I hope the deer leave them all alone. My one little rabbit is taking out my hosta.

Impatiens—I love them as they are hardy. I’m a killer.
