flower pots

15 potted plants
I've potted up 15 pots for my patio this year.

With the roof reconstruction underway, I've relocated all my pots to safe grounds in the backyard. I also took the opportunity to empty the dead pots, sift and freshen the potting soil, repot things that had gotten too large, pot up more refugees and so on.

Seeing them all in one place, I'm surprised at how many I've accumulated over the years. I've always like ceramics. I just didn't realize I had an outdoor collection of them.

I also enjoy pulling a together a collection to see just what you have. Usually I do this by photographs.

My pots are very plain and most have cracked from winter neglect. I repair them the best I can. My newest ones are two giant brown plastic pots from Costco. I can plant almost a whole little vegetable garden in each. They are now holding pumpkins and sunflower seedlings.

Last year I said I wouldn't grow pumpkins in a pot again, but with a new growing season I seem to have forgotten my past failures.
