I always make planter boxes for our front fence that I use red white and blue flowers in. I started one year with red geraniums, blue lobelia, and white bacopa, but the geraniums needed more sun. So last year I used a hybrid red New Guinea impatiens that could handle some sun, and they were spectacular all season.
This year I did the same mix, and the NG impatiens and the lobelia looked great a couple of weeks ago, but horrible now. I’m hoping that I can refresh the planter and give it some TLC, but I have to say I am disappointed with how they’re looking now. I think the weather has been a big factor.
That sounds lovely!
