I've been on a flower and plant shopping spree lately. I bought a flat of pink Impatients, Swirl Raspberry and Accent Rose Star varieties to plant in the flower pots on my front porch steps. I also planted them in the barn pully planter I have hanging there. They will look so pretty when they start growing and fill out.
At the flea market I bought some new plants that I've never grown before. A Moon Flower vine which will have big white 6" flowers like Morning Glories, that bloom in the evening and smell like jasmine. I need to find a trellis or something for them to grow on. I guess I need to go shopping again =)
I also bought sweet potatoes vines in two colors, the chartruce green and a burgundy color. I just need to find a place to plant them.
I love sweet potato plants,I have the three varieties,they actally had huge potatoes last year,they ran rampant,pretty plants.Love the pots on the steps..they always seem to say welcome ..
