I Have a Flower Border!

Done and Done.  I've always wanted a flower border, last year we had one but I didn't get to plant it myself because I was out of town for work, but not this year.  Here we are folks, I finished it up in about 3 hours! Total of 3 Flats of Flowers.  1 1/2 Flats of Petunia's, 1 Flat of Impatients, 1/2 Flat of Alyssum's.  All in varieties of colors.

Here's the before:

And Here's the After!
Give it a few weeks and I'll take another photo.  I totally went against what the little floppy card tells you about Full Sun.  I know I shouldn't have but I want IMPATIENTS! I only did one flat of them so if they don't make it I'll replace with Pansy's.  

And now I'm off to sip a cold one at the pool along with my funky tan line I just got on my back ugh..

Happy Saturday!
