wildflowers


Last night after work I went out and finally started my wildflower garden along the fence next to our driveway. Last year I planted several Purple Coneflowers and Black-Eyed Susans which have already started to poke out of the soil. So, yesterday I planned out the plot and got out my flower seeds and went at it. I planted Giant Sunflowers in the back to give us privacy from the neighbors who are nosy. I also planted Shasta Daisies, Cosmos, Gypsophilia (Baby's Breath), New England Aster, Columbine, Coreopsis, more Black-Eyed Susans, and Nasturtiums in the flower boxes on the fence. Since this was my first experience with starting flowers from seeds, let's all say a little prayer and hope they come up.
