Junk and Fuschias

June 30, 2013
My love affair with garden junk continues...

My new obsession...garden junk and fuschias.



A perfect combination of rust and beauty.

A galvanized watering can and a roller scrub bucket.



An old metal gas can and nozzle.

An old rusty water pump in front of a sea of green spirea.

Four old sprinklers.

Three types of fuschias.

Seven AM in a junk garden.  Bliss!

Update:  I have been spelling Fuchsias wrong!

  8. Oo, la la la la la lookin' good Carlene! Sorry, that song just popped into my mind and now I'll be humming it all day. Your fuschias look so lush and healthy! And it's the perfect day to be out in the yard. (coffee break right now and then back outside to enjoy the weather.) Happy gardening!

  13. Your pictures are always so bright and cheering. I love old watering cans with flowers too - they are gracing my front porch. Always a pleasure to visit from SYC.

  15. Junk gardening is the best! Your Fuchsias look gorgeous. I usually plant them, but didn't this year. I love them for my shade planters. I have to tell you that in Spain the Fuchsias are bushes. Seriously, they are huge. I've been meaning to do a post of the flowers I saw, but haven't yet. I love my old sprinklers too. I think I have 4 or 5. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
    hugs,
    Jann
