Succulent Pots Part 2

Thursday, May 5, 2011

Two weeks ago I shared our pots on the front of our house, so this week I thought I'd share the pots on our back deck.  It has been pouring rain, so excuse the lack of cushions on the furniture.

Mr. Cardinal is enjoying this planter.

I have enjoyed the succulents, so I planted a couple in little Guy Wolff pots by my kitchen sink.

How is your garden growing?

    The succulents are beautiful & I love the one you potted for your kitchen. Everything around here is blooming so slowly. We've had tons of rain, but without sun or warmer temperatures (only 42 degrees yesterday), it seems like we're stuck in limbo.

    Beautiful. We are on the top of the hill, but I can tell you how things around here are going by saying- right across the street the bridge is still partially submerged underwater, we really got battered with the rain- most in a month ever recorded and our poor neighbors yards are and will be underwater for a while.

    I don't expect this to make for great gardens, but since we have a super early growing season we may all have a chance to redo most of them.

    Ohhhh I love them. Very pretty, and the pots you chose look amazing, the Urn and the wolfe pot.
    I have a very similar Urn I just planted some whispy white flowers in. Never thought of the type of plants you chose, great idea Ricki. xxx tami

    They look great! I love the picture of the cardinal too. I love the inside planting too!

    It's still going to be a couple of weeks until I can safely plant in my pots. I'm sure ready to though! :)

    Have a great weekend!

    What a pretty area, looks so pretty with your plants! I don't usually plant many succulents, I may have to give it a try! Love Guy Wolff pottery. I don't have any but I've always loved it!
