This is not the first time I've attempted a porch planter, but I can't find that I blogged about it before. One year I had a rather nice looking collection in this old ice cream maker, but I don't know when. The link below is one year that I put some house plants outside for the summer.
So, I thought I'd do red, white, and blue. Betsy gave me a geranium which I assumed would be red when it bloomed. I bought a white petunia, I bought one of those very cool dark blue petunias with white spots. I put them all in the planter with some dangling sedum.
The blue petunia died. I really don't know how that happened since they are all in the same planter and were all watered at the same times. And apparently, I didn't even take a picture of it. That makes me sad, but maybe I can get another one next year.
The geranium has turned out to be pink! So pink and white it is.
One of the years that Loretta was here, I put almost all the house plants on the deck and added some railing planters. That was green and leafy and nifty. It doesn't look like I blogged about that either. O well.
Today the humidity was nearly unbearable. I don't function well. I worked my little summer job this morning, shopped, cleaned up the kitchen, walked 2 miles on the road this evening.
