Our Patriotic Porch

It's the time of year that we celebrate our traditions. We bring out our red, white, and blue and show that we are proud to be Americans.

I'm displaying a small patriotic quilt that I made for my front porch.  

My begonias are adding to the patriotism with their beautiful red blooms and a small American flag.

The huge macho fern looks fabulous next to the begonias and flag. 

My roses to the right of the front porch, are flourishing with beautiful red flowers. I found a surprise in my roses this week, a nest filled with four blue robin eggs. 

Have you tried "Diamond Frost" euphorbia? This delicate white plant was my very favorite new plant last year so I'm buying it again this year. I have it in with cabaret bright red calibrachoa (Million Bells). The calibrachoa is another favorite. It is a prolific bloomer and produces 1-inch blooms and attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. 

My daughter gave me a dark red geranium for Mother's Day and I have just gotten it repotted for the front porch. They are such a classic beauty, I think we all love their green foliage and deep red flowers. 

I'm so thankful that my quilt is finished, and my flowers are blooming. 

Our back deck is also dressed in an Americana bunting and pots filled with patriotic colors.

I would love to hear how you show your patriotism - Judy.
