Really want you in my world
Step, hey girl in your eyes
I see a picture of me all the time . . . "
Okay so I do . . . embarrassing!!!!
Anyway,
What does a 90's boy band have to do with our back porch? nothing really except for the geraniums on each step of our back landing.
I LOVE the look of potted plants going up a staircase! And for some reason they have to be geraniums, I don't know why, that's just the way it works in my head :)
So 3 terracotta pots, 3 terracotta saucers, some pebbles for the trays (to ensure good drainage) 2 - 6 packs of geraniums later, and we have some color and life on the back porch.
Max likes them too :)
Step by Step . . . . oooooo Geraniums! haha
I am a big fan of geraniums! I plant them in pots for my front porch every year. I like the bright red ones usually but these pinker one here today are very pretty! I like that cascading down the stairs look too.
ReplyDeleteLove! Of course. :) There really is something about geraniums and terracotta pots!
ReplyDeletePost made me laugh, love it!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely one of my favorite plants, especially in a terracotta pot!
ReplyDeleteMax is so stinkin' cute, he's the perfect accessory.
Max is super precious! Love that little face!
ReplyDeleteI love Geraniums! Love the look of pots on staircases too.
ReplyDeleteToo funny! I just read this from a GREAT site "The Renegade Gardener" and then I read your post! So what do you think? Is it true?!

Woops...that didn't work! Go to the Renegade Gardener and click on designs and then click on "my last damn rant on red.."
ReplyDeleteThe guy is hysterical!
I like flowers traveling up steps, too. Those look awesome!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous!
ReplyDeleteI would agree to not having red in the front, but no red at all seems crazy to me, I love my back porch red geraniums and I can almost promise I'll have them there next year too!! hehe
The guy is hilarious though! I think I'll flip through a couple more of his posts!! :)
Thanks for the link
