Thank you everyone! You all make me feel great!
maury, thank you. I've planted a couple different plants in them, last yr after the grandkids painted the 3 larger pots I had Martha Washington Geraniums in plastic pots and set them inside, the smaller pot on the far right was painted by a friend of our's daughter about 6 yrs ago, the Geranium was planted directly in it. This yr I had African Daisies planted in plastic pots and set them in all 4. The Daisies didn't do well in the shade as they stopped blooming, so will find a shade loving annual for next yrs planting. I did however put the pots on the south deck and the Daisies started blooming again. I think next yr I will buy a couple more of these rectangular planters and fill them will African Daisies and set them on the south deck for the summer. What do you think? I'll plant Petunias, Verbena and Lobelia in those again so will need new ones for the Daisies. I get those pots at Walmart, they come in the grey or terra cotta, they're made of recycled material and also come in small and large hanging pots that swivel so you can rotate them during the growing cycle. I love 'em. I'll post a pic of them next all are very inexpensive.
