My week - Gardening Season

I love this time of year, everything is so fresh and green. However my eyes are usually bigger than my flower beds. I see so many great plants that I know would look fantastic, the problem is I don't always have the space in my existing flower beds.  I am especially enjoying springtime this year as I have so much less arthritis pain since the operation on my hip which has made me a bionic woman. I have purchased two phlox plants, another hosta, ornamental grass and a clematis vine as well as several petunias for planters.  I am including a few pictures of the poor little things waiting to be planted.

A display stand that I used in my flower shop now does duty as a plant stand in summer and a frame for Christmas lights in winter.

Great year for lilacs.

My petinuas have all been planted

This beauty will be planted in the next couple of days

This creeper is well established and looks so beautiful in its bright red colours in the fall
