Landmark day !!

En route home from the chiropractor appointment, I bought two bags of planter soil and two bags of clay chips.   (Clay chips for drainage in the pink pails.)  I’ve been preparing for this day for many weeks!!  Scarlet Runner Bean plants are in the two red Topsy-Turvy upside-down Hummingbird planters.  Scarlet Runner Bean plants are in the three pink “paint” pails.  A tomato plant is in the green Topsy-Turvy upside-down “pepper” planter.  I lined the inside of the planter with heavy plastic so the extra holes are covered.  A tomato plant is in the Topsy-Turvy upside-down “strawberry” planter.  I lined the inside of the planter with heavy plastic so the extra holes are covered.  No hole in the bottom so the tomato plant is peeking from a hole near the bottom.  (FYI: The pepper planter was free; the strawberry planter was 99 cents.)  I had just finished planting, and watering, when it began to rain.  Finally, a few minutes to rest and survey the completed projects.   ~~  More seeds have sprouted and will be ready to plant soon.  I have two other variety of vines, with red flowers, so eventually I should have lots of color to attract Hummingbirds.
