I am a container gardener junky. lol
Are YOU?
I'd like to say I was born with a green thumb. Most gardeners will tell you they are just having fun. It's an easy hobby to start. Buy the plants you like and follow the simple instructions that are on the tag. It's so easy that even your kids and your husband will get involved. Who doesn't like to play in the dirt? Do you remember making those famous mud pies?

clematis vines have large rosy pink flowers and are highly fragrant. They are wonderful for container gardeners like me. I highly recommend
them due to their beauty and easy care. The good news is they are easy
to find at your local garden centers. They are considered one of the top
clematis to own. Asao clematis adds color and impact to your garden and bloom
from spring to fall. Can you tell that I love them? :)
This is how they started off last year. In just one year you will have oodles of large showy pink blooms.
How’s that for BIG amazing beauty!
I hope I've inspired you to start your own show stopper container garden.
The pots and flowers you can purchase at Home Depot.

They've really thrived, Dee. Love the pots.
Whoa! Love that moving "Thanks for stopping by" animated thing at the end there, Dee!!
I love your potted clematis. I kept planting one every year to climb up my mailbox and it never came back. I think the salt trucks in the winter probably killed the root systems and they just couldn't get through it?
I did plant one at the base of our tall bird house and it is back again for year three and I saw lots of happy green leaves and new shoots this week. Location location location!!
Thanks for sharing. Love your cute pots. :)
You are a great container gardener Dee. Not me, I kill everything.
Your plants are gorgeous & the containers are wonderful, DD.
Yes, I do container planting as well as tend my huge gardens. Pop over to see a few I've posted thus far.
Have a lovely eve ~

I love container gardens. They can really spruce up an otherwise boring space. I do love the clematis you chose. Really pretty.
Beautiful! I love clematis and yours are lovely!
Enjoy. :)

I've never tried vines, yours are pretty against the green pot. I have put various flowers in one large pot and watched the staging of the blossoms.
Mud pies, I used my tea set and made little grass and leaf salads to go along, ah youth.
These flowers are so beautiful Dee! Clematis is a flower I do not have yet in my yard but will eventually since I find them so gorgeous. This year I have been focusing on moving plants around and will be making sure everything stays alive!
They are beautiful!! You are the Queen of container gardening!!!

Your clematis are beautiful, Dee. I didn't realize you could grow them in containers- I've only seen them climbing up mail boxes. Love the idea of container gardening- no weeding! :)
Dee -- I have a black thumb. I have a purple clematis that is on it's third year and each year I think it only grows a few inches taller than the year before! Yours are beautiful!
BEAUTIFUL!!
You have inspired me! I love those climbing clematis. How pretty they are. I need to get a few new containers this year.

Clematis is so pretty. We do have some off our study, growing on a trellis wall. They haven't bloomed yet. Yours look beautiful in those pots. thank you for stopping by and leaving me suck kind words. Yes, I do have a cutie pie.
I love container plants, too,especially large ones I can use on either side of the steps, etc. Your clematis look great. Love the green color of the pots.
Thanks for visiting,

Dearest Dee,
Those pots are gorgeous, especially with the clematis inside. We keep lots of pots but it is a burden, each fall for bringing them inside the greenhouse for keeping them alive. Not all pots withstand frost either...
Love to you,
Mariette
I love gardening and have lots of plants in containers. Your clematis are beautiful.
Container garden is good in our apartment in urban. I do like and can put around a dining table or corner of a balcony. This sort of green is pretty with big pink flowers.
These are absolutely beautiful, yes I'm inspired! Thanks for sharing your beautiful clematis!
We keep our plants in big pots or planters now, too. It's fun and manageable! ♥ Love the containers you've used! Gorgeous color! ♥
Hi Dee,
I love clematis, I have tried to grow it twice before, to no avail. It just dies on me. Maybe I did not have the Asao clematis vine.
I will be going to the Nursery one day soon, I'll look for the Asao clematis. Yours are so beautiful!
Hugs, Cindy
I love to container garden too. You can move things around or put plants in odd places to add some colour and interest. Those clematis are so pretty. Thanks for sharing at our party this week.
Hey Dee!!!!! Your flowers are so, so lovely!!!! I do love flowers, but believe me it is not that easy to grow them, for some people like me, for example...mine always die :( that is why I always enjoy the others' flowers...
Blessings,
Nadya
Yes, yes I am! :)
I don't have that one and I'm a little envious right about now. I'm pinning it to my "want" plant board!
So pretty - thanks for sharing!
Stopping in from These Peas Taste Funny.
Dee these look GORGEOUS! I love clematis but never thought to grow it in a pot. Think I'll be coping you:)
PS- LOVE your moving signature! Too cool!!
Hi Dee, I have a few Clematis in my garden, but I don't have this one. I have been wanting to plant one in a container to grow up my pergola. Guess where I am heading tomorrow? lol! Yup, nursery here I come. Thanks for sharing! I have a link party and would love if you linked this up. Find link to it on my sidebar. Or it's my 2nd latest post.
Hugs,
Jann
Those look great! I wouldn't have ever thought of growing clematis in a pot but they look marvelous! Are you keeping them trimmed back so they don't grow real tall? Love the pots you chose too..beautiful!
I really do like your containers! Love the green color! I find that these can be very expensive in our area. Do you find them at bargain places, or do you just pick out the specific design that you are looking for..
Enjoyed.
Oh Dee I would love to have plants in containers, but they usually end up dead. It is so hot in Orlando that they have to be watered every single day, no fail and if I o out of town for a day or two it's roots up. I do love the way they look mixed in with a garden they are so pretty and the array of pot choices is endless
Carol
I love clematis, but I've never tried planting them in a container. Now you have me thinking of all sorts of things possible through the use of container planting. Thanks so much for your clever ideas. Have a great weekend, Connie :)
Lovely. There is just something so rewarding about plants. That is, of course, if you can keep them alive. Thanks for sharing, liz
These pots and clematis are GORGEOUS! I have 3 new ones this year, and if they grow to be half as beautiful as yours, I'll be ecstatic.
Lovely! I too do a lot of containers filled with annuals because of lack of space . I have perennials in the garden though. I do want to become a little more creative with my containers...
Hugs,
Deb
Good Morning Dee:
Love your Clematis! They are show stoppers to be sure. I have three areas in my garden that have Clematis and they seem to just go on and on and on year after year! This seems to be a good year for Clematic as some of my buds are huge this year! Time will tell. Thanks for the idea of Clematis in containers!!Mary Anne ox
Beautiful. I struggle with clematis here. To hot I think. Yours are lovely. xo
i love those beautiful pots! what a fun green!
Beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration!
I just bought some Purple Clematis! Then my big pot broke...and they are sitting there just waiting to be planted! I LOVE you green pots!!!
So beautiful, Dee! I have never tried growing clematis. I would love to have some them in my yard too. Thanks for sharing!
The clematis are gorgeous!! I have a few in my yard and they never cease to amaze me.
I love the container garden ideas - thank you,
Gerrie
Love that clematis but those pots are even more AMAZING! I adore them!!
Hi, Dee
Love the container. Just so bright and cheery.
Vanessa
I love clematis and even after the deck builder almost killed it, it came back up the following year! But how do you contain it in a nice clump? I guess if the trellis is short, it stays contained and bushy?
My hand is up in the air and waving because i too am a junkin plant container kinda gal! Your clamatis is so pretty! Thank you so much for linking up to the Cottage Garden Party over here at Fishtail Cottage! hope you are having a great week! xoox, tracie
