I love unexpected pairings of plants in containers. Something I wouldn’t have thought of, to mix strawberries and pansies, yet look! It’s beautiful. It helps to visit different design shops/nurseries to get ideas for spring plantings. I know everyone is chomping at the bit to get out and play in their yards. Right now the azaleas are in full bloom and they are stunning! I woke to 67 degrees as I write this and it’s going to heat up to the 80’s. It’s. Still. February. Also as I write this the northeast is expecting their biggest snow storm of the season.

What are some colorful combinations you’ve put together over the years? We have a window box on the side of our house – it’s been tricky to find something to thrive in its location as the sun has waned over the years due to the Live Oak growing and branching out. Shade plants aren’t quite as exciting for the most part, but there are some and we usually figure something out via trial and error.

Hard to believe it’s already March – woohoo! Enjoy your spring, whenever it may come to your part of the world!🌷
