Splashes of colour

Some small splashes of colour and life in my gardens... I am a little concerned that this butternut pumpkin is losing it's battle... it had started off so well too :( It probably doesn't help that the garden is now filled with this strange coloured fungi all along the sides ~ when I get a chance I think this whole garden will need to be dug over and started again. Let's hope for a better crop this coming spring / summer!

Some new pansies planted a few weeks ago are blooming ~ I love these flowers, so easy to grow and the flowers last for so many months!

My newly potted geraniums are glorious. The plants are so healthy (particularly the couple around the water tank!)

The pansies and geraniums are stunning! Especially the pansies.
I really want to get some big pots/planters and fill them with pansies, but i hoenstly dont' know what's best for them, when the best time to plant them is, the best way not to kill them.
