Posted in Gardening

I usually plant hanging baskets for my front porch each spring as I am too cheap to buy the premade ones.  BUT... last Thursday I saw them get some off of the truck at W-M and I loved them... 
I didn't buy any because we usually do 9 baskets across the porch and I knew it would cost too much.  I could always plant some myself.  So I went home...

I became obsessed with these hanging baskets, and saw them at another W-M, and they had 5... I thought that I could probably do it with just 5 if I respaced my hangers, and these were much bigger than my usual baskets.  BUT I didn't need them so I left.

My mother knew of my obsession with them and looked at her W-M, but they had sold out...

So I was a sad kimi thinking that the baskets were so beautiful that they would all be gone....

So I went to the original store, and hidden in the back on a shelf were the baskets!

I was so excited...  I bought 5 of them.

Now while I usually wouldn't splurge on something like this... they are spider plants so I can bring them inside during the winter and use them again next year... I'm not sure what the other plant is... but I do love them....

I love my plants, but I have yet to try hanging baskets. I love them, but I just don't have a good place for them! But someday I'll have a pergola or a covered porch or something and then I'll have lots of them!
I enjoyed visiting your blog!
