I was anxious to get something pretty in my bare planters so the porch would look more finished. We are hoping Alex, the man who's been helping us with the yard will be able to help up with the tree planting; he said initially that he would, but things may have changed. I know he has other customers besides us. <br /><br />Thank you for visiting, Vee, and have a great week my friend!Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271182300590181890.post-51588098155185308282021-10-05T19:52:33.093-04:002021-10-05T19:52:33.093-04:00No pumpkins.

Sounds as if you will have your work cut out for you with planting a dozen trees, <br /><br />Enjoy the search for peonies. I always love to visit the garden centers.

I've always liked them as a shrub and hedges, but had never thought of growing them in pots. Yes, I think slow-growing is exactly what I need for these pots. Thanks for stopping by and hope you are well!<br /><br /> Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271182300590181890.post-20625788021431699102021-10-05T11:24:21.341-04:002021-10-05T11:24:21.341-04:00Your front porch looks very welcoming and pretty. ...Your front porch looks very welcoming and pretty.
