A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Gardener's Chat Vic's beautiful hanging baskets - pics

Hi all,
My neighbor who is in the general vicinity, Mr. Vic, is at it again with his gorgeous hanging baskets this time. He called a few days ago to say he was having a plant sale Sat. & Sun. So, I got first digs on some beautiful hanging baskets for sale thanks to Vic. He mainly had hanging petunias, had a few hanging trailing vincas (had to have one of those too .) Vic is the neighbor who I purchased my dinnerplate hibiscus from last year. He said he will have them in June sometime.

Thought I would share with you the love Vic has for his gorgeous hanging baskets and raised and had for sale this weekend.

Take a look.

I went a few days ago to purchase my plants. I decided it would be a nice gift for mother's day so off I went today, Saturday.

I want you to know Mr. Vic was just about sold out. Good thing I went back today! He was taking down his arbors when I got there and had only three left. Whew. :shck:

WOw Beautiful!!! Plants like that sell really fast here too!! Glad you got in on it first thing!!!

Very pretty. Thanks for sharing.

WOW beautiful, thanks for sharing.

Diane,
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! These pictures do not capture what I actually saw. I'm sure glad Mr. Vic knows who to call first!

rosepetal,
Thanks. Hope you get warmer weather soon so you too can enjoy petunias.

patunia,
Thanks

Joni P,
Hope you see warmer weather soon. When will petunias bloom in Iowa?

Hey Penny,
Thanks!

sibyl, I did get lucky there! These baskets need water daily. Mr. Vic said when we get 98 degree weather, it will be bye bye for these beautiful petunias. I'll try to keep them cool thru the summer

Triss,
Thanks. It was an incredible sight. I asked Mr. Vic if I could return with my camera to take pics and he said sure.

dodge,
Thanks. The baskets were half that price!

Hope all enjoyed!

Will take pics of my baskets when we get sunny weather for good shots. Stay tuned.
