WOW! What eye candy!! You gals and guys have done tremendous jobs on your pots. They all look so pretty!!!

Kat, I like how you have them on the red lava rocks. I've been hemming and hawing about red lava or aromatic cedar in my little area that I'm doing in the front.

I tell you what, Dave's has really changed my way of gardening around here. I've learned so much, and seen so many wonderful ideas, from so many folks. If I haven't told you all, thank you!

OMG Janet! I only signed up in March...and there is NO-WAY I would have had a garden like this without the inspiration of this site and the beautiful photo's everbody posts! It has just been great! I'd probably still be looking at 3 planters and wondering what to do with them! hehehe. Now I have about 60 and love every minute of it!

I'm right there with ya Kat! Dave oughta set up a Savings Account for Plants to support our habits. HAHAHAHA

How true is that Janet? You might have just come up with an ingenious idea! How about an RRPP...(Registered Retirement Plant Plan). With the cost of things these days and social security the way it is, we just may not be able to to afford our plant (pot) habit when we retire! haha. Do you think the Government would go for that? It would keep us quiet!

Yep! The government needs to have Earth Beautification in there somewhere. Give me the money, and I'll beautify the Earth. Well, OK, not the WHOLE Earth, but I'll leave my space as something my children and their children will appreciate.

I found the prettiest little hibiscus at Lowe's. The colors were so vivid. I couldn't decide which to get, so I got several of them. I had a lot of fun making these containers.

1st up

Baja Breeze

I don't know what that white plant is on the left. There was no tag, but doggone it, it was too pretty to pass up also. If any of you know, please let me know. :-)

Each of these hibiscus blooms are only about 3-4" across. I just fell in love with them all.
