What is the sparkly, red, white, blue body in the North American night sky? Saturn?
I'm very recently interested in the night sky and I'm investigating a star/planet. It's in the North-western sky in the northern hemisphere (Ohio, USA) and mid-low maybe 40ยบ off the horizon. Most notably it's sparkle is very bright and dramatic and blues/red/whites are easily seen. I only see Saturn in the nightsky guides, but they show it in the West to Southwest for my location.
There is the star Capella that could fit your description (although it is a lot less than 40 degrees above the horizon). Being very bright, we can still see it when it is low, its light coming to us after crossing a lot of the atmosphere at a shallow angle.
That causes a lot of refraction, causing excessive twinkling and the apparent changes in colors (that is because the refraction is slightly different for each color).
The twinkling is due to the fact that stars appear as very tiny objects and the angle of refraction caused by the air can be bigger than the apparent size of the star.

Saturn is much higher and is yellowish. Because planets are a lot closer than stars, they do have a larger apparent size (even if it is still too small for our eyes to notice). Because of that, they will often be seen as NOT twinkling, even though stars around them are.
Saturn is to the South, or SSW; definitely not NW.
Capella is NW by the time the sky gets dark.

Can anyone give me ideas, white and blue with red flowers in large pots?
I planted several very large pots downtown this summer ... looking for red, white and blue go together. Salvia thought of red geraniums ... or maybe. Other ideas? We are zone 5.
have a little good start into account. Sage and geranium will give you some red. Geraniums are white too. Remember no petunias, stocks (Mathiola) Baby's Breath (white and sweet smell of Nice), snapdragons, stocks of the scented night (they are climbing plants hanging over the edge to hide a small container, which are spicy aroma and blue during the dark hours and very pleasant on a hot summer night) Dianthus (many flowers are very showy red and white), morning glory and blue lobelia can be if you can find the right variety, blues can be Nigella good, red and white phlox, Linum beautiful blue, a beautiful dark red bee balm, Veronica (Veronica) is a large blue, but you need to find a variety which is not too high, other dephinium Big Blue, but we also find fewer varieties for pots, can be finally Anchusa a beautiful blue and the border is a plant to make very good sides of a container. Varieties available for your project that whites and reds. Plants with blue flowers is difficult. Sounds like a good combination Tho color. Good luck and have fun!
