It has been a long grueling winter for many of us in the upper midwest. Record snows. Massive rain fall. And should I even bring up the incredibly cold temperatures!! I hope to never see another Artic Vortex!
But…..now we can take a deep breath and get outside. With that comes flowers for your house. Oh how I love planting all kinds of color in my patio pots and watching them grow.
Besides color I really love the whispy feathery plants. They add so much softness and kind of stick randomly through the other flowers.
I have tall narrow urns by my front door and every spring I love trying a different greenery that drapes down the side of the pot. 
I have even gotten to enjoy the pots I have in the shade that are filled with a variety of greenery and no flowers.
In Minnesota they tell you that you are safe to plant flowers on Mother’s Day because of the frost but beat the rush and head out and purchase them today!
