    Beautiful looking containers of flowers, they are the bees knees. We have a small front garden with three flowerbeds, fifty two containers of perennials and six containers of annuals on the front windowsills. My wife has no interest in gardening and tells me it looks like a mini garden centre. I water the containers and flowerbeds with a watering can and feed the containers with tomato food once a week. I mulch the flowerbeds and add two handfuls of fish blood and bone every March and they don't get anything more until the following March.

    If you time it right, and have patience, you can actually watch the buds open. They smell heavenly. Enjoy!

    I had 4 sunflower "volunteers" pop up in an unused pot (must've been from birdseed I spread around earlier). I babied them for weeks, only to find out the hard way that squirrels love to behead them! I have 1 left and I am taking no chances with it! I bring it in at night and I have it where I can see it from my kitchen window. Next year, I will be more purposeful and careful when I plant them!

    @@summerofstacey6676 Good strategy! I'll keep it in mind for next year! I've never grown sunflowers before, but watching these babies grow in a pot that is probably way too small, yet still become beautiful giants makes me want to try again next year. Also, just wanted to say I love your garden and am impressed by how many plants you have and that almost all are in great shape! You really know your stuff!

    @@bevmaloney aw you are really so kind to say that! I wanted to follow up and ask how does that sunflower do with changing the temperature by going in and out of the house?

    @@summerofstacey6676 I only just started doing that recently and it seems fine. However, it is fully grown so I don't know what would happen if I did it when it was still growing. It's not too hot here in Southern California right now, so there isn't too much of a temperature variation between inside and outside.

    Your containers all look so pretty! I have 2 feeders and we don't have any hummingbirds either. I don't know what's going on?!

    Hey thanks for taking the time to check out my video!! 🌸 I just wonder if this past winter caused the hummingbirds to move or something.

    @@summerofstacey6676 Of course, I can't wait to watch more of them! Us Texas gardeners need to stick together and stay pepped up for this summer season that's about to kick our butts ;) Yeah, I bet they moved on too...
