I have geraniums, begonias, and some (frost-resistant) cushion spurge (yellow flowers) in big pots, but the first two don't like temps much below 50 degrees, so I've already been hauling them in each night to their ovenight spot on plastic near the front door.

I wanted to plant something, but haven't done anything else but pull weeds.... Somehow, I'm no longer even concerned with the dog's yellow spots in the yard...
