minimalist mimulus

Yesterday I went to the garden centre, looking for lazy ready-planted hanging baskets but that's what they looked like: lazy etc etc ....

So I bought geranuims, new guinea impatiens and mimulus in bright colours.

Taking some shots of them was the easy bit: now I have to make time to plant them to surprise Ray when he comes home from his trip to Scotland and finds that I have done a bit of gardening in his absence.
Absolutely stunning. Beautiful, a fav.

I have had to scroll all the way down the people who I am following Hazel because I thought I hadn't see you for a few days. Sure enough I had unfollowed you by mistake......so easy I suppose if you are checking to put your finger on delete...I did it with Judith recently! Unless perish the thought you both removed me!!!
Anyhow I have re followed you so stuck with me!
I need a ready made hanging basket as I have done nothing....might go to Garden Centre before the rush this weekend. Pretty edit of petunia?

@happypat

Close, it's a mimulus. I recently found out that I had never been following somebody whom I thought I had been linked with for ages! No I would not remove you!!!!
