I have a flower pot!

Yesterday my mom came to town and brought a nice big flower pot with some petunias and another plant I forgot the name of. We went to Walmart and got some marigolds and a geranium for 62 cents each! Plus some ground cover and potting soil. A very LARGE bag of potting soil! Anyway, when we got back to the apartment, I planted some of the plants and flowers in the pot and I am excited to see what will happen. It looks a little sad right now and it might be overcrowded, but I am hoping they will survive. The kids are looking forward to seeing the flowers bloom and helping me water it everyday. Here are some pictures of us getting ready and going out to water them this morning.

  1. It will look better in a week or so!
    And I have mulch to put around the plantings which will tuck things in and help conserve moisture AND just looks good!

  4. I think that is great Liv! I'm kind of jealous...I would love big pots like that around my porch like my neighbors have but I just don't know how long they would last due to uprooting, over watering, rearranging, digging and so forth.
