It's Definitely That Time of Year Again....

Every night on my way home from work, I see this.... (well, not this exact same thing, because I snagged the photo off the Under the Sun website, but you get the idea)...


So, naturally, I have been itching to bring some of those beautiful blooms home with me. I have been resisting the urge to stop on my way home for 2 weeks now, but I am not going to deny my inner gardener any longer. This weekend it is on! 

Now, seeing that I am a major planner type of person, I have been doing a little online browsing to look for some fun combinations to go in my many pots that will be scattered about the backyard...I'm going for a real Hawaii-tropical feel back there this year...well, as Hawaii and tropical as you can get in Oklahoma anyway (ie..no palm trees for us, sadly).

Anyway, nothing screams Hawaii-tropical to me like lots and lots of bright colors! So, here are a few photos I have gathered to use as my "guide" when I hit the garden center tomorrow.







 

So, can you see a theme here...big, bright and full is my motto this year!!

Oh, this is going to be SO.MUCH.FUN!!!

Photo updates on Monday, friends! :)
