Today was a very productive day outside. Yesterday I purchased all of these flowers at Walmart and then planted them today. This planter is sitting on our back porch...I would love to buy two more of these to match and fill them with more flowers. They would make a pretty makeshift railing!

This is a gorgeous pink-kissed Ranunculus.

And a closeup of the orange one that was tagging along.
I also purchased black mulch for the first time...what a difference from the red and brown mulches....my flowers stand out so much better!
