I wanted to share pictures of my hanging baskets. The picture below was taken on May 19th, 2009. I remember when I bought them (I have three others) and thought they looked pretty good...
Here's the same hanging basket on July 11th! I'm amazed at how big it's gotten. I swear (well, not really...LOL) by Miracle Grow Bloom Booster. I water the baskets every day, sometimes twice if it's really hot out. I also try to cut the dead blooms off every day, too.
Thanks for stopping by to take a look...enjoy the rest of your weekend.*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Thanks to all of you who visited and commented on my last post about my new bunting for the porch...I really appreciate it!

WOW! How beautiful! Your thumb must be a lot greener than mine! LOL!
Enjoy your weekend!
Your blooms are just gorgeous. And I thought my hanging geraniums were beautiful. I'm off to get me some Miracle Grow Bloom Booster! Thanks for sharing your posies with us. ~Adrienne~
They really have grown! Really gorgeous. I can't wait to have a place where I can have hanging baskets again some day and this time I'll know how to keep them beautiful. Thanks!
How lovely! I didn't make any hanging baskets this year and didn't plant my railing boxes either. Maybe next year.
Love how your porch looks!
Kim, your flowers have grown beautifully! You have such a lovely home,
Have a blessed evening,
Sharon
Beautiful baskets! I try and cut off the dead blooms too. I think it also just makes for a prettier basket.
Your Blog is very sweet, the kind I love to visit :) Don't you just love to see the fruits of your labor? Summertime and all the beauty that the flowers bring there is nothing better. Love it all!...Thanks for sharing and stop by and see me sometime!

They are the prettiest touch to your great porch!
You make keeping those hanging baskets looking "luxurious" sound simple enough that I might actually try. I have given up, but see that probably I don't fertilize and water enough. I've jotted down your "formula" for next year. Thanks for sharing the pictures & instructions.
Beautiful!
cute baskets!!
Those are amazing! Really a great recommendation for the Miracle Grow! PS- love the "look"of your blog :-)
I love your hanging baskets! They look beautiful! :)
Gorgeous hanging basket, Kim! Do you have a problem with wrens wanting to nest in them? I do. I no longer get my baskets hung on a hook when there is a nest with eggs. Trying to water around it all can be quite tricky.
Wow, Kim! It's so luscious and beautiful! You have a green thumb too...don't give all the credit to the magic grow stuff! :) Those are great!

KIM, I love your hanging baskets, they are about one of the few things I can keep alive in the" no
rain and heat" we are having.
Hope things are ok at your house.
Purple hugs,
Barbara
Your baskets are very lovely!! Mine are suffering from the high heat and the fact that I may have overwatered them to compensate.
I hope you are having a great summer!
Hugs,
Robin
Hi Kim,
The week is going by so fast and this is the first time I have had to write you a note. I love how your geraniums look hanging from your front porch! they are absolutely beautiful. I will have to try some miracle grown.
Take care and enjoy your day,
