Wildflowers that last

These spring wildflowers have been in a vase for 7 days and still look this good:) Larkspur, winecup, and Indian paintbrush.

Sunflowers

I sowed several different kinds of sunflower seeds this past week. I’m most excited about my mammoth sunflower this year.

Delicate

My favorite poppy of the season.

LATE AUTUMN

One of the perks of having mild winters in central Texas is the extended growing season. HUGE perk actually. There is still so much life in the cool mornings and evenings. So far, it’s been exceptionally wet this autumn with one early big freeze that ended the warm season flowers. Here’s what’s happening in the garden and greenhouse.

anemones are popping up!

wildflowers are popping up!

PAPERWHITES are popping up!

I propagated my Pilea. NINE BABIES!

Something new I’m growing is ranunculus. So far so good. I pre-sprouted them for 14 days before digging them in the ground. I’m not messing with them much so I think they like the independence.
