Since I will be in Cape Cod this weekend, I'll share some photos from the Potted Garden Tour that I took last weekend. There were 14 sites set up around a neighboring town where local landscapers and nurseries donated pots or other arrangements to beautify the villages that make up the town. I also photographed flowers and gardens that are more permanent, just because they were pretty.
Enjoy!
The next photo is of a secret garden belonging to a lovely old Colonial in the center of town. I want to follow that garden path and see what hides around the corner!
This next photo is of a store further up the street.
Some roses are rambling on a fence near the marina.
The next few photos of the tour are of bonsai in a Zen garden at a local spa.
The next day, Chris came with me to find a few that I'd missed. Wouldn't you know the first one was a potted bicycle?! He spotted the flat tire right away.
The last garden was tucked away on a side street near the river; I had been looking for pots but this was a more permanent exhibit.
I hope you enjoyed the Potted Garden Tour, and have a great weekend!
Those are pretty blooms! Are you going to try to recreate any of those pots at home?

So pretty! The bike planter is a hoot, too.
That reminds me... I need to get going on my window boxes on the deck.

What a unique way to use an old bike!
