This area of the new landscaping begged for something to be planted here to block the dryer vent, etc. but my daughter didn't want anything actually "planted" there. So we searched for a container she liked, she's so picky!! LOL Found this one but it wasn't the right color so we bought textured spray paint and painted it a color she liked :) Planted some of my favorite plants, Cordyline 'Red Star', which hopefully she will bring inside and save for next year, and Fuchsia magellanica with Euphorbia 'Diamond Frost'. Told her the 'Diamond Frost' will fill the pot and spill over the edges in another month but she's not convinced - yet! On the long drive home I realized we were in such a hurry to get everything done we forgot to drill holes in the bottom of the container :(
