    I went plant shopping yesterday. I got 3 new house plants, 2 fushia plants, 1 carnation, and 1 thing called a liatris spicata. PIctures are here:

    The new ones are the 2 in the very little containers, I haven't gotten to transplant them yet.

    Great new additions they are Melissa.
    I really like the indoor garden area on top of the cabinet in the first picture, great way to make a plain white corner look really beautiful.

    Are all the plants staying in containers or will some be planted in the ground?

    Congratulations on your new plants, that cupboard arrangement is lovely. :D I especially like the Liatris. We've had both purple and white, but they've deserted us now. I shall have to go and get some new bulbs.

    Yaaaay!! Good haul.
    I like the Liatris. I grow them every year. Did you know that it's one of the few plants with it's flowers on a stalk that start blooming at the top and works it's way downward?

    You got some very nice plants for both inside and out. looking good.
