Around The House

One of my favorite days each year was this past Saturday. 
Let's call it "go-to-the-local-nursery-and-spend-way-too-much-money-on-flowers" Day.

Exhibit A: A trunk full of color.


On Sunday my new friends went in their pots and hangers and my yard is officially 'springalized'. 


Cheers to spring color!

  1. What gorgeous flowers!!! The garden area in our apartment doesn't get sun so we can't grow anything! It's so silly and I wish so badly that I could have our itsy bitsy backyard blooming!

  2. What gorgeous flowers. Wish our Texas summers weren't so hot. It's hard for me to keep anything alive in the heat of the summer I'll live vicariously through you. ;)

  7. Wahoooo! We went vegetable plant shopping this weekend to plant in our raised garden, but my mom (who has the greenest thumb I know) told us to wait at least 1.5 weeks before planting. So now we are trying to keep our little plants alive by placing them outside on our patio table during the day and in the garage at night. Pain in the butt.

    But enough about MEEEEE, I love the variety of colors you picked. So gorgeous!

  16. I deparately want to buy flowers but we aren't buying this year we are prepping to make new flower beds. I have some Stella Dora flowers that come back each year and that's all the color in our main bed.

    Love all the color! Try some verbena and lantanas if you get full sun they are so pretty.
