Day two in the garden and lots more planting. The "hot" corner with Kalenchoe and Pentas is done, also added some Petunias and a Phlox. At the other end which is shadier I put in a Carnation. They never do well for me, but I love them and always plant one. It's a soft pink. There are 4 Chrysanthemums waiting to be planted there too.
In the next bed which is quite a bit shadier I have started with my purples and put in a purple Penta and a couple of white Petunias.
It's really hot out there so I have retired to the house. Not much housework gets done when I work in the garden, but I need to get a little bit done before I exercise.
It looks great; you've worked so hard. I'm sure you will enjoy this beautiful flower garden in the coming months. Pat xx

That's going to be beautiful. I love carnations for their smell. Reminds me of my grandma who had a lot of them in her garden, and of the corsages I got for dances as a teenager!
