Good Ol' Pal Dusty Miller

I LOVE you! You are so soft, delicate and add the perfect tone of grey to any palette especially pale pinks and peaches. I love it so much I have planted it by the bounty in every container on my balcony. It is like a cashmere sweater or as if someone made a web of cotton on a lovely shaped leaf. Truely divine! My only complaint is that it smells exactly how it's name sounds.. Dusty and swampy. Oh well, just mask it with a peony or two and your good to go.

Little Gardens

I have been making a lot of these little planters for mother's day this weekend. Aren't they sweet? I love feeling like I'm designing this mini garden and how it is a great alternative to a cut flower arrangement. They are lovely to enjoy in the house for about a month but would be much happier on a sunny patio table. I have also been doing quite a few urn consultations lately in order to bring gardens to condo balconies. I'm so excited to work in the sun and look over the lake while I plant them. Keep checking in I shall have lots of photos of my container gardening soon.
