Now that Minnesota has cooled a bit . . .
wow that first container is beatiful.
Thank you, pheitmeyer, that one might have to come indoors to see if it will continue to grow through the winter.

Jeannie....beautiful containers. You have a wonderful eye for design & color.

Thank you, Vanessa,
Having seen the wonderful flowers in Hawaii, I take that as quite a compliment!

I love the shape variation of the one that sits by your front door. I'd say you have an artistic streak. :)
Thank you, dreamingofeden. That one is coming inside for the winter to see if I can keep it going. All but one of those plants are "house plants" here in Minnesota. There is a woodland fern that may not like indoor dry air . . . or it may become an indoor thug. Haven't tried one of them inside.

Jeannine~Love your urn, pic #1! Is that a phormium? And what is the other plant, besides the fern and pilea?
I have never had good luck keeping ferns in the house, but my houseplant book says frequent misting is essential. They also suggest using a pebble tray, to raise the humidity level. Hope this helps you keep them growing, very nice grouping.
edited to add: I think I found it! Pteris cretica albolineata or Variegated Table Fern.
