OUTDOOR TREND-VIBRANT PLANTERS AND 2 WINNERS!

Outdoor planters, traditionally terracotta and rarely embellished, have recently received a makeover. They have become infused with bold colors and interesting shapes, taking center stage over the plants they house. The good news is if you do use a colorful planter, you can be more subtle with your plantings, using a variety of greens or even a boxwood bush for a more modern, sculptural touch. Happy planting!




And for the winners of the Jo Malone scented hangers-
Teresa of Splendid Sass and Lesley from Around The Table. Congratulations!

I'm so excited! Thank you so much Barbara!

The boxwood is so pretty and looks great planted anywhere. I think I have the exact planter at the top (in black) and I have a boxwood in it! There are lots of beautiful options out there for containing plants!

Enjoy your day! xxleslie
