Our hanging baskets at home have been functional rather than pretty & have served us well for around 10 years; their contents change to reflect the seasons & so it might have carried on except for a trip to a reclamation yard while visiting friends.
My heart skipped a beat when we arrived - wonderful treasures & an eclectic mix of things ....
I always love the way teracotta pots weather & age ...
Oh yes .... love at first sight but ... only one & I like pairs ...
Heaven - a pair of reproduction victorian cast iron planters - SOLD
My friends son obliging by getting them to the car ...
Time for new coir liners & potting soil ...
The plants moved across from the old planters
I just love the detail on them
Just about potted up - time to soak them for a while and protect their contents from my two
house bunnies... seen sneaking up on the planters.
Fred & Vivaldi being distracted from eating the contents of the baskets
Planted & put up in the front of the house by the porch
I rather like them - a pair of lovely hanging baskets - perfectly at home with
a pair-of-holly-trees which have long outgrown their indoor pots.
I absolutely love the new hanging baskets - what do you think?
Thanks for stopping by, till next time,
Dee ~♥~
Dee,
ReplyDeleteThose baskets really good and you have inspired me to garden, but I have a load of weeds to deal with and the garden to mow!! It is looking better, but a way to go<3

Thanks for your kind comment Kathy my friend - your garden has some lovely colour & plants; I too have heaps of weeds this year after all that wet weather but a little, often is my motto in the garden ♥
