A week ago my mum gave me an old planter it was very dirty and she said she did’nt want it anymore and could i use it ? What a silly question mum!! so i started to clean it


I planted Tate-A-Tate bulbs, Pansys and a Skimmia


Next i planted Tangerine Dwalf Tulips this my “Tulip Pie”The shells are to stop animals digging them up

Here are a few more plants i ’ve just put in

Lovely planter pretty, The Skimmia looks great and about the same size as mine told you did nt I, happy you found one they are decrotive even with out the flower as the varigate leaves are a show on their own. Your pots look so colourful
