im always showing my plants in my back garden and even though i did show you the front of my house with baskets when first planted, thought i would show you how they have come on, even with all the rain and some wind they are lovely, well i think so lol


these first pics are my hanging baskets as you can see and also close-ups which i just stood on tiptoes and aimed lol


the next 3 i showed were my concrete planters, one has the fuchsia i was training to be a standard but when i went away it prouted all over so i just gave up but i quite like it,just needs lots of sunshine to open all the buds


last one is the second basket close-up. hope you like them as much as i do,thanx for taking time to look,,, sandra x
