After checking out all the options for geraniums this past weekend...and in the process finding myself a new white Christmas tree for 75% off...WoooHoooo!.....we went back to the nursery that had the most vibrant colors.
I love to plant BRIGHT pink geraniums in my deck planters, which I can see from the kitchen window as I do the dishes or from the patio doors as I sit and enjoy my breakfast or do some writing.

I had sooo much fun picking out 36 geranium plants!!!
We had an unexpected surprise when the cashier asked my handsome (distinguished) Prince if he was "over 55"...because on Tuesdays there is a "senior citizens" discount...LOL! Well...yes....he answered....I'm 57...he just blurted it right out......I NEVER blurt out my age....and NO....I am NOT a senior citizen...not yet....so, she also informed us that every Tuesday I can get the senior citizen discount...as long as I bring "HIM" with me! LOL! It was quite a nice discount...my Prince was thrilled!
Now these wave petunias we've had for a few weeks....waiting to see if the squirrels attempted to devour them (like they did last year) before we put them in the window boxes...so far, so good....so maybe it's safe to plant them...we'll find out real soon!
Soooo...anybody wanna get their hands dirty?

Love your pretty flowers and I am such a fan of geraniums. They just looks so good and bloom their little heads off. Lovely. Hugs. Marty
I love geraniums, too. I'm a fan of the bright red ones, which is odd for me as I'm basically a pastel person. They just look better against my brick. Now I have to gather up hubby to get a discount!! ;-D

Geraniums are one of my favorites! I just planted quite a few pots of red ones for my patio out back. Petunias are a classic as well. I'm thinking of getting some wave petunias for hanging baskets. Yay you on getting the awesome senior discount, too. Or, I guess I should say, "Yay, Prince!"
I hope you are doing well and enjoying this bit of sunshine!

I love that in the States. Here in Canada you don't get a discount until you are 65. I have a ways to go yet.
Can't wait to see your planters all done.
Think your "pansies" are actually "petunias"!
Yes....my "pansies" are actually petunias! My pansies are already in pots out front...LOL!
