Save a favorite pot in the garden

Wind to wonderful!

A big wind in the West blew over my camellia again!  I’m surprised the pot didn’t break,…again! I love the color and thick sides of this pot, so for a long time it sat by my potting table waiting for inspiration.

Oh no, a big crack!

I decided to use it at the corner of my patio to ‘hold’ a favorite low creeping plant, Cupflower, or Nierembergia, which has periwinkle blue flowers.I planted a small upright growing rosemary to soon be a ‘background.’
