    Interestingly enough, what you are calling hot summer color combinations like you are showing here seems to be all I have in the back around the pool. I have all those glad colors you are showing sot hose are my favs in your shots here. Fortunately I think all the blue of the pool is enough to balance all that color out. Or not!

    That’s funny Colleen! The glads were a mixed color package I grabbed at the dollar store; I have to stock up next year, they are just so robust.

    Thanks for leaving a comment!
