Winter was so harsh on our garden! With today’s nice weather…I had no choice but to "dig in" and plant some sunshine in our pots.
Before: Pretty sad way to greet our guest at the front door. I was able to save the fushia (at least there are some green starts on the plants) which the hummingbirds loved last year. And I think the Dusty Miller is still alive (can you kill Dusty Miller?).
After: 
Instant sunshine! While at West Seattle Nursery, I noticed that they are having an Art and Garden Show beginning on March 31. They are looking for artist…if you’re interested contact Marsha.
oh yes it is possible to kill Dusty Miller and I have done it many times. I finally had to make a vow to not buy it any more. It must do better in your climate than down here in Florida.
