[QUOTE=PaPaLarry;750402]Yes, geraniums do well this time of year, but are subject to frost. Don't know if your lanai is closed in or not? Geraniums don't like lots of heat, and do not do good in summer. (Shaded areas are good though) Of course , Mums are good now, but everyone has Mums!! Petunias are great now, before frost. Colder weather, pansies and snap dragons are good. I'm sure if you attend "Twice on Tuesdays" they would have great suggestions, along with Florida friendly plants. Impatiens like shade.[/QUOTEI
I kept the geraniums on the lanai, which is not enclosed. It's covered and gets a few hours of sun each day. This summer they started spazzing out, so I am now going to redo the pot after a December trip--so third week in December.
We have three sunken pots along our front walk that get afternoon sun. Had alyssum in them but had to take them out when we went home last spring. I'd love any suggestions as what to put in there this winter. We tried impatience last year, but they didn't do well, even when covered for frost. (We neve got any forst, btw.)
