Flowers in containers

Here are some arrangements that caught my eye when I was travelling a few months ago.

I love the colours in front of English homes. The owner of the flat have cleverly used the steps.

Wow, the pub owner must have a green thumb! What a profusion of blooms! It gave me an idea on how to mix different colors that compliment each other.

Hi Evelyn, its so nice to find your blog! I too love succulents for their beautiful shapes and delicate flowers.
The flower containers are all gorgeous! Love the bath tub idea!

Nice post. Flowers can fit into any nook or cranny ans bring a little cheer.

Those are all delightful containers. I especially like the ones going up the steps and the bathtub. I rarely see hanging planters in the desert where I live because they dry out too quickly.

Great series of photos and such beautiful flowers. Loved the one of the old bathtub, but then I loved them all. Thanks for sharing.
