Cats and planters

I took my mum on a Sunday drive to one of my favourite nurseries, just to have a poke around, of course, and ended up with a whole lot of nice little things that needed planting. Of course. A major portion of the little goodies ended up as the bones of a Project, which was to fill up the concrete planters at the head of the driveway (see above) with some colour and texture. (The snapdragon was looking lonely.)
But there were others, too, so it's a good thing that I have/had a lot of empty pots sitting on the deck.
Oh, yes, bag of potting soil, you can relax for now...while I just arrange the iceplants and edelweiss, and consult the locals on the plan.
"Yes, the box definitely looks better without all that stuff in it."
Tough to get constructive criticism from the locals.  It's like herding cats.
"Where are you going?"
Well, at least Oz took some interest.
"I approve."
For a while.
"Sleepy now."
Getting there.  Looks nice!
"Yeah whatever."
All done!
"Yup."
