Today I pulled up the leggy overgrown pansies in the front bed. I was sad to do it because they were still colorful and pretty, but it was garbage day and I knew it was time. Plus, Cook's had a sale on lobelia, buy one flat get one free. Which led to more planting and I still didn't use all of the second flat. Lobelia is my favorite though - it is blue, after all.

Lobelia by the mailbox

I added lobelia between the white impatiens I planted last week.

I had this blue pot already so I just planted lobelia around the edge and went back to Cook's for the variegated geranium and more bark. You can see I didn't pull up these pansies, they still looked good; I think they get some shade so they haven't burned up in the sun yet.
