My June hanging baskets are now in order.
I'd be so happy if you'd have a look at them.

Hanging baskets in June
Lobelia and Begonia tenella
Pink petunia
Nastatium and lobelia
Oxalis triangularis and Pelargonium
Lovely! I've grown that begonia (tenella) from seed but never found it from bulb
or plant. Where did you find it?

Breathetaking Tomtom. I always enjoy seeing your hanging baskets. Thanks for sharing.

As always JUST BEAUTIFUL!! I really enjoy your plantings.. You give me great ideas,too....Aleta
Thank you ,all, for your coments.
Tammy,I have never been successful in growing B.tenella from the seeds.
Luckily I found the young plants at a nearby shop this spring .
The price was 2 dollars @ a plant.

Beautiful Tomtom...Are those planted in those pots we were asking you about???
Those are just beautiful! I wish mine looked like that! Tamara
Wow...just gorgeous...everything so full and green...the colors of your flowers so true...in zone 9 here have alot of trouble with them fading. Yours are great.
Tomtom,
Your flowers are beautiful. I was just reading the other thread you had posted re: making containers from cement and newspaper. Yours are simply breathtaking. I love working with my hands and have to give that project a shot.
Thanks for sharing your ideas and wonderful flowers.

Just out of curiousity, how many lobelia "plugs" did you start with for the first picture you posted (white)? I've tried growing lobelia several times and it rarely gets bigger than when I first get it. Your plantings are gorgeous!
tomtom - i'm gonna stop looking at your pictures because they make me sooo jealous. they ae truly beautiful.
p.s. keep the pictures coming.
Thank you ,every one, for your comments.
I'm highly flattered.
Yes,Demstratt,they are planted in the pots you asked me about .

mosc0022,
I used the plants grown by myself.
What seems important is to use the pre-blooming plants.
From my own experience they don't spread vigourously when they start to bloom.
Wish you best luck.

I love the lobelia and nasturtium one. Just gorgeous. All of your containers are lovely combinations and very creative.
Tomtom....I always look forward to your plantings. Just beautiful.
