Don't laugh. But you see that photo? Its my first attempt at a flower garden. The area is more shaded then I had thought. It's right next to my front door and my door has sun on it all day. This little spot...not so much. Only early morning sun. So yes, those are fake flowers in the pot on top of the frog. I didn't want to commit flower murder. Planted are impatients--that I bought my mistake. Guess it was a blessing in disguise since these are shade flowers. And also in there is creeping phlox. I've had these flowers now for a little over a week and I hope the garden perks up soon. I think I may have to move the creeping phlox, because the flowers are falling off and these flowers like their sun. I'll give them a little longer and then move them. Hopefully by the end of May I can update with a more full and flowery garden. Got any gardening tips you can share?

Hi, it's cousin Niki from NY. Your garden looks cute. We do a lot of gardening and I have a large shady area. New Guinea impatients work really well in shady areas. I have a ton of them. They come in a bunch of different flower colors and leaf colors which is unusual for shade plants. You can also plant hostas but beware they get big. Finally, my favorite shade flower is lily of the valley. They smell awesome. Good Luck!
