Feeling Kinda Fernney
Is “Fernney” even a word? Me thinks no. But here’s the deal …
I love having fresh flowers and greenery on my front porch. It just finishes the house. Back in May I bought two beautiful baskets to hang. They were stunners … I had neighbours asking me where I got them they were so fabulous. Then it got hot and we were on holidays and, up until this morning, I had this hanging:
Aren’t they sad little things?
So I popped by one of my favourite flower markets today to see what was there. I’m not ready to make the full transition to fall flowers and it seemed silly to be buying summer flowers at this point in the season so I came up with a compromise …
A little leafy, Fernney goodness! Check it out:
Ferns! Aren’t they pretty?!
What do you do when you are in need of a fresh look and it is between seasons?

What a terrific idea, Sarah! Another timely blog!
The ferns are so lush looking!
Thanks again, Sarah. You always seem to find the most helpful things to blog about!
Ferns are the best! They give the feeling of being in the tropics and I am planting as many as I can. The fresh green foliage is wonderful! Great job!
I love ferns too! $14…and they live all summer…you can’t go wrong.
