new in the garden

Due to the untimely death of one of my tomato plants, a petunia and some violas the garden has been looking a little spare. So, after much consideration and no small amount of garden store window-shopping I finally made the plunge.

At a local nursery (which rocked) I picked up another geranium - possibly my favorite summertime flower - and a begonia.  Begonias may just be my new passion.  Apparently there are a zillion different types and the leaves are all different and pretty.  As my little potted garden transitions slowly between seasons, I think some more begonias are in order.  They seem like they are not only pretty in their own right, but good backgrounds to flowering plants as well.  Win-win!
