2013 ~ LOOK WHAT'S GROWING SERIES ~ UPDATE ON MY FOUNTAIN PLANTER!

I went to my local garden store and couldn't resist picking up a couple perennials for my fountain planter.
Here is what it looks like now!


These are the plants I planted.
Bleeding Heart Pink

Lithodora Grace Ward 

Cheddar Pinks Peppermint Star

 Hosta Brim Cup


And this is
Vinca minor, sometimes called Periwinkle or Creeping Myrtle.
(Thanks Beuna)


Have a fabulous weekend.
HAPPY GARDENING!

  2. Lovely plants but is the soil deep enough for the bleeding hearts or are you treating them as an annual?
