Petunias in the planter I assembled/built a few years ago:

Full shot of the Louisa. It's much prettier in real life--the photo doesn't do it justice:

Thanks! It took a few years, but the crabapples have developed nicely.

I know we're going to get another cold snap between now and Memorial Day. The nights have stayed pretty cool, given that we're so close to the lake.
