Lets see your Hanging baskets, pots and troughs

Only just got around to putting them up but here is the front of the house. Awkward site as the pillars either side of the garage are quite narrow.















































I'm quite pleased with them
Will add some of the back in a bit, I'm being assisted by a three year old so please spare me some sympathy
Please add your own efforts

Lovely Claire yours are more advanced than mine. Mine have got some serious catching up to do.

Ok as we go down the side access way ( The Dogs Entrance)









not the best bit of the garden, bit of a storage area for compost and anything waiting to go to the tip tbh.


























Look at my poor clematis

I'm not happy with miracle gro I bought a pack and got a free feeder for the hose, Well it was cr@p overdosed the plants something chronic and this is the result.








The flowers are fine just a shame about the foliage





















This one marks the end of the access way. Come on where are all of yours?

I've just finished planting up the last of mine in the front garden, and haven't had time to take any pics yet.
But I have a few from the rear garden

Container water lily, enkianthus and acer

The acer is beautiful. Is it a lime-hater? I`ve got a rhodedendron in a tub but never know what to do about watering it. We don`t get much rain here so I can`t collect it.

I will take some piccies of mine in the morning but they aren't anywhere as elegant as yours
I love last years, I think that is what I would choose to have grow in mine
Have you complained to Miraclegro? I did, if you saw my post on Mushrooms. It's worth it they sent me some vouchers. Go to their website.
