Now is a good time to get out and pick up any last annuals you want to plant.
Some may be getting a little overgrown, but they are still workable! Plus, many local places are and will be having sales. Perennials are starting to go on sale too, but I think the best time to purchase and plant trees, shrubs and other perennials, is during the fall. They won't be much to look at in September,
but next spring they will be beautiful. Plus, they will have only cost you half of the spring season price.
Happy planting! And don't forget to sit back and enjoy your hard work and lovely flowers.
As promised, here are just a few of my friend's flowers, as well as her shed sale finds!
clockwise from top left:
green, wooden bench - $3 (this was actually a garage sale find)
love the naturally worn pots that came with her house (lucky!) and impatiens
cabinet with vintage door - $175 shed sale find - perfect patio storage
vintage red, metal lawn chair - $25 (i think) shed sale find
old wire basket - $15 shed sale find - i love how she incorporated this into the landscaping
