Oh, that is just great. I wish I had your flair for growing things and for designing the gardens and displays!

P.S. I love the suitcases. Did you cover them yourself? I want to do that to a train case I have. Am wondering about the best product to use. Advice?

Beautiful! I made the mistake of breaking my rule and purchasing some plants before Mother's Day. We had frost the other day, and it really damaged my geraniums!
