Eventually, the lilies played out and I bought some Gerbera Daisies for the summer decorative flowers in the planters. I didn\u2019t get around to putting them in the planters since a tomato plant had started to sprout in the soil where I cut back the lilies.

Now, I\u2019m looking forward to having garden-fresh tomatoes grown on the front porch.
