April’s full Moon often corresponded with the early springtime blooms of a certain wildflower native to eastern North America: Phlox subulata—commonly called creeping phlox or moss phlox—which also went by the name “moss pink.” Thanks to this seasonal association, this full Moon came to be called the “Pink” Moon.

Other celebrations:

• Walpurgis Night - April 30th

Also known as: May Eve

The origins of the holiday date back to pagan celebrations of fertility rites & the coming of spring. After the Norse were Christianized, the pagan celebration became combined with the legend of St. Walburga, an English-born nun who lived at Heidenheim monastery in Germany & later became the abbess there. Saint Walpurga was hailed by the Christians of Germany for battling "pest, rabies, & whooping cough as well as against witchcraft". Christians prayed to God through the intercession of Saint Walpurga in order to protect themselves from witchcraft, as Saint Walpurga was successful in converting the local populace to Christianity. Although it is likely that the date of her canonization is purely coincidental to the date of the pagan celebrations of spring, people were able to celebrate both events under church law without fear of reprisal.

Walpurgis Night is still a traditional holiday celebrated on April 30th in northern Europe & Scandinavia. In Sweden typical holiday activities include the singing of traditional spring folk songs & the lighting of bonfires. In Germany the holiday is celebrated by dressing in costumes, playing pranks on people & creating loud noises meant to keep evil at bay. Many people also hang blessed sprigs of foliage from houses & barns to ward off evil spirits, or they leave pieces of bread spread with butter & honey, called ankenschnitt, as offerings for phantom hounds.

Hoy volví a uno de mis rincones favoritos de Sevilla: Las Setas, también conocido como Metropol Parasol. Este lugar nunca deja de sorprenderme con sus formas modernas y el contraste con el encanto tradicional de la ciudad. Durante mi paseo, además de disfrutar de las impresionantes vistas, me encontré con varios maceteros llenos de plantas típicas de Andalucía, como olivos, cantahueso, mirto o lavanda, que le añaden un toque aún más especial. Un lugar donde la modernidad y la naturaleza andaluza se encuentran de manera única. 🌿🌞

Today I returned to one of my favorite spots in Seville: Las Setas, also known as the Metropol Parasol. This place never ceases to amaze me with its modern architecture and the contrast it creates with the city’s traditional charm. While walking, I came across several planters filled with typical Andalusian plants, like geraniums and jasmine, adding an even more special touch to the experience. A place where modernity and Andalusian nature meet in a unique way. 🌿🌞

[closed starter for @jynxd.]

 He approached the large wolf-like beast of a man without fear, but instead with a platter of fruit and bread in his hands. Presenting the gift quietly, he took a seat on the large central planter, keeping all his movements steady and clearly telegraphed. It wasn’t out of apprehension or fear, but out of an understanding that with the man’s new form came new instincts and urges. Sudden movements set off those instincts, and caused unnecessary pain and suffering.

 The air in the conservatory was clear and easy to breathe, while also full of aromas of the growing plants and specimens. Lilacs, geranium, and moss smattered the room while colored glass let in beams of tinted light. It was a place meant to soothe, not to agitate.

 “Hello, Warwick,” he said to announce his presence at last, holding his staff in both hands across his lap. “Are you in any pain, today? Before we begin the Healing, I would prefer you to be comfortable.” He offered him the respect of speaking to him as he would anyone else, regardless of his appearance.

hiya! i work in/manage a greenhouse too (maybe half the size of yours i think?) i was wondering if you had any favorite basket or planter combos you made up this year!

i did a few combos i really loved- antique double salmon geranium with a fern and baby tears pilea

peachy keen verbena, double orange superbells, salmon sunpatiens, vista bubblegum petunia, and silver falls dichondra

really im just a sucker for everything in the peach/salmon/coral/pinks

Yeah!! It's hard to remember to take pictures but this year my favorites have been pinks-blue-yellow but also purples with silver.

In total I designed uhhhhh ~350 cone hanging baskets, ~450 planters of varying sizes, 140 big coco fiber baskets, and 50 big moss baskets. Most of those had 10 of each design. So??? Almost 1000 different designs.

So it is tough to choose a favorite lol or remember which was which.

I really like Salvia Icon Blue as a central thriller, then Petunia Miss Marvelous and Dekko Lavender Eye and Lobularia Stream Lavender as fillers, plus Dichondra.

Also I used Big Eeze Geraniums with Dekko petunias again for the big combos and that worked very nicely! Dekkos are a little smaller so resemble Callies but are more vigorous and less aphid-prone. A combo of those with trailing coleus fills in a huge basket well. Also Diamond frost as a filler. Lysimachia sunburst as a trailer.

Bridal Veil and swedish ivy as shade trailers! Spider plants as well! We have stock plants of all three and they grow super wonderfully. For smaller planters, wire vine, though I didn't use much this year.

And my classic and best selling mix is just. Dragonwing begonia, mixed seed impatiens, and ipomea or trailing coleus. I've found that most customers prioritize lots of colors and flowers over anything else in terms of planter design so impatiens mixes are a big seller even though they're pretty basic

Also, I went heavy on the double impatiens this year. I hate them so much they are so messy and dramatic once it gets hot in the greenhouse but they grow fast and fill in so nicely.

If I could get begonias to grow quickly enough, I'd use them, because I feel like they're the real mvp of summer baskets for longevity but unfortunately, I'm growing for looking good pre-Mother's Day. Anything but dragonwings just can't compete in a mixed basket in early spring.

Anyway lol

[ramblingcoyote]

Revisiting Trigun and everytime it showed geraniums I kept thinking "why do those flowers look so familiar" then I remembered that my grandma used to have giant barrel planters full of red geraniums and I loved the smell of them. I could never tell if it was the flowers or the leaves that smelled so good but I would always sniff them when I stayed there when I was little. My mom also had a little potted one in the house too. They have kind of a metallic smell to them.

Elevate Your Entryway

Make a grand statement by placing large Italian terracotta planters at your entryway. Fill them with eye-catching plants like olive trees or tall ornamental grasses for a dramatic effect.

Caring for Your Italian Terracotta Planters

To ensure the longevity of your planters, follow these simple care tips:

Seal Your Planters: Applying a terracotta sealer helps prevent excessive water absorption and cracking, especially in colder climates.

Use Proper Drainage: Ensure that your planters have drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the roots.

Clean Regularly: Remove dirt and mineral deposits by gently scrubbing with a brush and mild soap.

Protect in Winter: In freezing temperatures, move your planters indoors or elevate them off the ground to prevent damage.

The smallest outdoor spaces can be transformed into flowery, leafy pockets of scent and colour, with the right balcony plants. From a large balcony to a bit of window ledge, there are containers and plants to adorn them. Troughs can be secured to sills; planters and holders can be hung from railings; ledges can be made fit for pots with miniature railings; and – in the style of the courtyards of Cordoba, where geraniums splash the sides of houses with red and pink – pots can be attached to fences and walls. Fill them with long-flowering, trailing plants for waterfalls of colour throughout the summer. On larger balconies, there is room for plants in standing pots to create a mini urban oasis.Jump to:AccordionItemContainerButtonBalcony plants for colourAgapanthus, such as the new long-flowering cultivar Midnight Sky, are delightful in pots; as well as producing sculptural boules of blue flowers, they have exotic-looking strappy leaves. For blue flowers that will trail out of a windowbox, try blue rock bindweed, Convolvulus sabatius (which is not nightmarishly invasive as hedge bindweed is) and the breathtaking ultramarine Glandora prostrata 'Heavenly Blue'; the latter requires ericaceous compost.Producing manes of red and orange, trailing nasturtiums (such as 'Empress of India') and ivy-leaved geraniums (such as Pelargonium 'April Hamilton') have the flower power to perform all summer. Less well-known is Lotus berthelotii, which has flame-like copper-ruby blooms amongst glaucous foliage. Also good for tumbling over the side of a balcony are trailing forms of petunia and calibrachoa – both reliable for non-stop flowering, if they are protected from slugs.Later in the season, compact dahlias (such as 'Totally Tangerine') are a joy in pots and will flower over a long period in full sun when deadheaded or picked regularly for the vase. Begonias, likewise, perform into autumn, and there is a wide range that make good balcony plants, including Begonia sutherlandii and 'Funky Pink'.
