flowers in pots

[sunrays]

I haven't got round to doing any pots this year and now seem devoid of ideas of what goes well together. What are you all growing?

Strawberries

I have lots of strawberries in the veg patch(1st crop for tea tonight!). Am thinking of flowers for patio

By my front door it is Pot City ... I have:

Geraniums; osteospermum; busy lizzies; verbena; marguerites; fuschias and the obligatory lobelia

AND a pot of strawberries, first bunch looks about ready to eat!

Out the front, bright pink geranuims and labelia.

Out back, pansies in different sorts of containers and a few Margherites which the slugs have demolished...bastards!!

I'm not sure I know some of them are sweet peas. .. oh and 5 sunflowers

Ummmm somethign beginning with M with Brian in the middle, marigolds (maybe)

They are all still green though, no flowers yet

thanks all. any ideas for greenery to go with flowers? i always use ivy but bit dull

I often use helichrysum (not sure about spelling!) - comes in silvery green, lime green and variegated varieties - can get quite large too
