Flower Pots

After we added the tons and tons of rocks in our backyard, Tom and I both looked at it and screamed - this needs color!  It was in the end of October, and things weren't as green around then. 
This year, we added 4 pots to our patio.  I filled them up with flowers from the other day.

Kristi helped me pick out mystic dahlias for the center, verbena, zinnias and wave petunias.  By mid summer, those petunias should be hanging everywhere!

We stuck some of the extra petunias in our flower garden by the trampoline, along with some cosmos.  Just looking at this picture now astonishes me.  This bed has grown in so much that you can't see the dirt!  It is thriving and beautiful!  We are having major thunderstorms right now, or I'd go take another picture. 

Everything we've planted is thriving!  We spend a lot of time in our backyard and this makes it much more of a fun place for me to be.  We did put flowers in the front - that's a post for next time!
