2005 - Pots thirteen to eighteen.

Pot: 13 = Size: 15cm round | Location: Hanger on fence
Plantings: unknown
Observations: This was a pot of flowers my daughter picked out and we didn't have the tag for. It flowered well and did tolerate drying out.

Pot: 14 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Ground in front of window well
Plantings: Winter savoury
Observations: Excellent plant. It spread quickly during the first year and filled the pot. Tolerates bi-weekly cutting for the herb. When it did flower they were small and a light white colour. This pot did winter over and survived to 2006!

Pot: 15 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Ground in front of window well
Plantings: Sage and varigated sage
Observations: Grows fast and tolerated heavy cuttings on a bi-weekly basis throughout the season. It kept growing until a killer frost late October.

Pot: 16 = Size: 60cm x60cm | Location: Ground in front of window well
Plantings: Sedum spectable
Observations: Good bloom, lasted until killer frost. This plant grew to almost 60cm in height. The pot did winter over and the sedum survived for the 2006 season.

Pot: 17 = Size: 60cm x60cm | Location: Ground in front of window well
Plantings: Argyranthemum Butterfly
Observations: Lacey leaves and prolific flowers. Lasted from July until September for the flowers. Again, this is one of the pots that wintered over well and survived for the 2006 season.

Pot: 18 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Ground in front of window well
Plantings: Lobelia Cardinalis
Observations: Good bloom, lasted until killer frost. This pot didn't survive the wintering over.
