I love putting blue and pink/rose/or coral together!
For my window boxes this year, I used Angel Wing Begonias, blue lobelia, and coleus...I find that the Angel Wings do wonderfully in the heat of the summer. They are so easy to care for in hanging baskets. I have them all over.
My bee monarda has just started to bloom...one of my favorites.
Another shade lover, and darn if I can remember it's name, but I love the yellow flower and green/white foliage.
Oakleaf Hydrangeas...the biggest they've been yet. I found this plant dying at a nursery several years ago...it looked like a dead stick, no lie. Look what it produces now!
I can't remember the name of this shade lover, but they are one of my favorite. They bloom all summer like this. I put them with my coral/pink New Guinea Impatiens and they really go well together.
Only a rose could smell as sweet...
Pink Lacecap Hydrangea
My vincas pick up the colors so well in this more unusual coleus...sorry it didn't show up as well in the pic as it does in person.
I found this at a local garden/antique store. I couldn't resist the birds. It says, "All roads lead to home." :)

Hi Betzie!
Thanks for dropping in and saying hello! While I really, really like your flower pictures I must say I adore the puppies! If you glanced back through my blog you will see I have two Cairns and a Lab/Golden X. Cavaliers are definitely in my top 5 favourites though. Hope to see more of them when I come back!
