For Snappy . . .

. . . because I know how much he loves Busy Lizzies.

I've had such good luck with containers this year that I decided to drag out my old porch boxes. They're a little dirty, a little bent out of shape, but they will do. I bought these at the grocery store because I love the color. I bought some purple ones with white stripes for the other box, but they aren't nearly as attractive. They had been displayed in full sun. The foliage is sun-scorched and they are very leggy. My porch is very shady. It sits under my neighbor's oak tree. I'm hoping they will recover. I know that I shouldn't have bought them, but I liked them too much to pass them up.
