Spring has sprung!

[seadoug]

At least in our courtyard. Our landscaper changes out all of our potted plants seasonally. We have drips in the pots to keep them watered. I look forward to new scenery every Spring and Fall.

He has a great eye for design. The tall plants in the foreground are hibiscus and they already have orange blooms coming in. He outdid himself this time!

Glad you got some sun. We got all of 35 min worth.

Yes it has! This is the time of year I start to feel alive again. That looks like such a wonderful place to hang out! I was out and about in what was summer weather here (N.J.) yesterday and today and it was so nice.

Very pretty patio and plants

That is such a nice courtyard, @seadoug! Lovely potted plants!

That looks cozy and peaceful—a nice place to relax. The best part is that you didn't have to do any of the work!

So effortlessly elegant!

That’s beautiful. What do you have that grows up the lattice? Those big pots are very nice. Hibiscus is a lovely plant but wouldn’t last the winter here. You must be in a warm garden zone.

Your patio looks like a lovely retreat!

 

[Lewkat]

Indeed, it has here in NJ. Will be about 90 degrees again today, and the landscapers are coming to plant our flowers. Only thing growing right now are daffodils. Trees are budding already.

Pretty little patio, looks very welcoming...

That’s very nice. Is that a clematis growing up the corner trellis? It looks like a spring variety.

Thank you! Yes. There's two. One is dark purple and a lighter one blooms after the first is finished.

I'm not sure what our landscaper planted to grow up the lattice. We had Carolina Jasmine on all three and only the outside two survived our 11 degree F temps last winter. I'm going to ask him to replace the outside ones as well.

The Hibiscus won't last past fall. We will have the plants replaced again. We get a few freezing/below freezing days each winter.

Carolina Jasmine. I bet that must small heavenly while in full bloom. Even the name sounds heavenly but if they aren’t winter hardy, I can understand wanting them replaced and you really can’t go wrong with clematis. That’s a wise Gardner you have to pair two clematis together in the same cutting group on one trellis. That must look stunning. Either way I think you have excellent taste
