From commentors MaryG and Higgs Bosun’s Mate:
HBM found this wrought iron plant hanger lost behind a camellia bush. My mom got it at the thrift shop in the 60s for peanuts and it always lived on her fence right outside her dining room table. She loved to be able to switch in her three best flowering pots into it to impress the ladies who came over to play bridge. HBM cleaned it up and planted geranium slips from around the yard in it last summer. They are getting ready to bust out.
We also planted two hanging baskets with one four-inch pansy in each one, you can see the yellow one in the background; the blue one has completely filled up its basket, but it’s between blooming cycles at the moment. They should last until it gets hot in June or July.
This is half of a six-pack of Iceland poppies we got at Roger’s Gardens, an expensive but amazing nursery in Newport Beach, CA.
