First Custom Planter

Excellent - I'd like two as well :)

That makes 4 then as i'd like 2 aswell :o))

Proud ? so you should be !

these are going to look gorgeous as they fill out !

Thanks for the comments. Now I feel even better. :-) It does just get bigger and bigger and more faces are opening. Bright pink stars of geranium, purple whirly osteos. :-) So much fun this job!

What a lovely job you have and made of your first order GT, they look lovely!

Thank you Pansy. It is really great fun and I needed something to do. I get about a month more watching them grow in.

The coleus foliage will make these boxes stunning, I think ;-)

I am very excited for the foliage. The bright pink foliage is alternanthera, I'm excited to see how that one goes too. The big boss sounds delighted to see some colorful foliage and shapes in the baskets. Gets me some job security. It seems all the long timers appreciate having someone around that knows what they are looking at and working with. :-)

look great GT, hows the job going by the way ;o)

Thanks! I'm enjoying it so much, and they seem to appreciate having someone around that knows what they're working with. I may do the planters each year from now on. A pleasure. I have all the greenhouse stock to work with. :-)

thats great GT, ;o)) well done you

What a fun job you have. Hope we will get to see all of these container plants when they mature.

I'm really enjoying Valeria, thanks. I will take shots before they get taken off to their summer homes. I just plant and bring up. I'm very pleased with them so far.

GTH great planters very theraputic.Look forward forward to seeing again before they go to their summer homes.

Thanks Scotkat. Its wonderful work. The dark has almost gone and things are growing sooo fast. Taking shots all along, in case they pick up when I'm away....lol. I'll post.

well done GT!!!!

Thanks Aleyna. They are growing well. I hope the customer is also pleased.

These look great GT -you have done a good job there!! :-)

Those will be lovely GT. I'm so pleased that you've found a "happy" job. They are lucky to have found you! :o)

Thank you Richard and Volval. They are almost completely in bloom now. Only thing I misjudged was the size of the kong coleus. The leaves just get bigger and bigger. I haven't ever seen such a thing!

" EEEEEkk!" LOL...just trying out my Fay Rae impersonation! With the size of the Kong you will have added dimension to the composition! Where will the boxes be displayed...on a deck? or below is regular window? be prepared to do a little pinching to keep it in check... Wonderful job, Gt.

Its filling in wonderfully. I've already pinched off the coleus twice. We're to the shaping and maintenance stage now. Pickup in two or three weeks. These are the sunny side rail of a deck and there are three others in part shade across the deck front. Who builds a deck in the shade....lol!
