Summer has officially started and gardens are in full stride.
Today I’m sharing my container garden that sits on a french etagere.
It sits in a corner of our back patio & it gets the right combination of sun and shade.
Of course like everything else it has moved from here to there on the patio but it has housed many plants and flowers over the years.
This year I went with just mostly white flowers.
As you can see I like to use some unconventional planters for my container gardening and I’ll share more on that in a later post.
Happy container gardening !
