Well, I have to admit I am not the greatest gardener there is (that would be my husband), especially since after planting my beautiful flowers year after year, I always never seem to find the time to water them. I have such great intentions when I begin, but unfortunately I don't take time to love and nurture my beautiful blooms and in the end they die. Kinda makes me think of being married. So many people start off thinking their marriage is going to be easy and in the end find out that you actually have to "water " it daily to continue to make it grow and bloom.
So this is a little test for myself. I recently have planted flowers in the pots on my porch and now I am going to see if I can (no, I WILL) keep them alive. I figured I better take some before pics so you can see what they look like, just in case!
This is my swing that is attached to my beautiful pergola and behind it is the awesome landscape my husband has done over the years (told you he was good)! The plants to the right are ones that I planted.
This is a pot I have had for years now. Don't laugh, but I used to put fake flowers in it since I have a brown thumb. The red ones are geraniums and the white ones are Abunda improved Bacopa. The lady at Lowes said I picked out two great flowers to put together and I was so proud that I bought two more and planted them in my hanging basket.
I love this hanging basket I got from Southern Living At Home. It is one of my favorite things on the back porch!
This is one of my favorite flowers of all besides a hydrangea. I can't remember the type of rose it was but isn't it beautiful? Now to just keep it alive!
This planter is sitting on my picnic table on the porch. I got it from Joann fabrics and planted petunias in it.
Well, say a prayer for me and I will keep you updated on my progress!

Wow, Tammy, you did an awesome job. I love the mix of the pink and white flowers cascading down the sides of the container. You just HAVE to keep these flowers looking good!
Very prett Tammy. I am so envious looking at all your beautiful flowers. Our snow is just now melting.
Beautiful! Lucky you to have your garden ready. Still too early here. Your husband did a great job on the landscaping, it looks very lush.
What if you had to record your watering somewhere? A calendar, a day timer, set an alarm on your cell phone. Might be worth the try.
I think those might be knockout roses. I love those too! Everything is beautiful. I have been thinking of adding a pergola in our backyard and this is making me even more anxious to start!
All of your pics are making me wish we lived in the South. Your porch is amazing!

These vuitton handbags look and feel great and pretty much like the real thing. louis vuitton for sale are made to be admired and coveted, and only by setting the Damier Geant Canvas down by the real thing that the most people know the difference. The material from which it is made will be as close to the Damier Graphite Canvas as possible, and the buckles and stitching may be a little different, but, unless the real thing is next to it, no one will guess.
