I planted some annuals to add color in my house border. I used Impatients this year for the white, pink and red colors. The first photo was taken in early summer showing how the plants started to spread.
This is the way it looked late in the season along with my little nature sanctuary. The plants did a nice job of filling out the area.
Here is another area that has some perennials, chives and the color around the air conditioner. We had good rain much of the summer so it allowed the plants to grow without any watering.
I really enjoy sharing my flowers. If you would look at this area today you would see nothing but dead plants. I didn't want to share that look.
I like your impatiens. You know they will reseed themselves from dropped blossoms. I takes a little while but they do reappear like a long lost friend from a snow storm.
ReplyDeleteLast year I had these wonderful flowers in my flower pots but this year I couldn’t grow them again for some unknown reason to me. I love those little flowers of various colours very much. And your photos are really beautiful and colourful.
ReplyDeletePretty flowers! Impatiens grow really well under the edge of my porch.
ReplyDeleteThe Impatients are very beautiful! They have such joyful colours!
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful!
ReplyDelete(hope that they grow well)
Colourfull and beautiful!!!
ReplyDeletePretty flowers.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful. I love to look at flowers but have never been a person that likes yard work. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteLove your flower bed so pretty and colorful. like all they really spread out. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteIts a flower haven! I call everyday since they have blossoms everyday, but annual might be more appropriate if they bloom the whole year :D
ReplyDeletebeautiful colors, my son would love it in your garden, unfortunately picking out the petals...=D Have a nice week!
So nice of you to share your impatiens! My neighbors have pulled all theirs out and will plant bulbs in that spot. They plant the same flowers every year, whereas I am always trying something new. I found impatiens require a lot of water, especially if they are in the sun. But next year I'd like to plant some by the side of my house. I like the way your garden has the squirrel, raccoon and grandkids' sign.
ReplyDeleteYour garden looks fine! Now with winter coming, we shall have to find winter flowers or indoor plants. That is getting more and more difficult.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit.
What a pretty flower the impatiens is. Your garden is lovely and these are great photos.

ReplyDeleteBut there's always next year!!
I love the combination of colors, very pretty..
ReplyDeleteLovely little gardens, FG! Your impatiens are beautiful. I didn't have to water this summer either.
ReplyDeleteEven when I lived where it was rainy and humid, I never had anything like that which would survive without at least some water. Very pretty! Looks summery and warm!
ReplyDeleteVery well done.... lots of pretty colors.
ReplyDeleteI love impatients and they will reseed!!
ReplyDeleteI love these flowers. Not long ago, I didn't know their name. ;-) Thanks for sharing with us.
