Aren’t they gorgeous?! The garden wasn’t ready when the vegetables were, but it was worth the wait. (I also got a ton of chamomile to dry!)

My daylilies are doing great this year.

Love the one on the bottom left. Are daylilies difficult to grow? I’ve got some space in front of the house that I could fill in.

They are so easy!

Daylilies are ridiculously easy. The only downside is that deer emphasized textlove them so if you are in deer country, they will chew off all the flowers and you’ll never see a flower.

I have my daylilies up on a bed on high wall where deer can’t get to them.

Hopi sunflowers! I need to find some big stakes because a few are falling over already.

This should make being at work a little bit easier.

so pretty!! i love those dark purple phlox, too — i just got some seeds for a phlox called blueberry swirl that i’m gonna try to grow that i think look similar!

my pink poker statice has just started producing and i am IN LOVE with it. i only had one seedling survive so i’ve got it in a pot and it’s so cute and wiggly.

I saw the blueberry swirl, such a pretty color! My phlox are all perennials other than the cherry caramel I just started growing this year. The problem with this is that the flower heads get real big and can be hard to arrange in a mixed bouquet. Eden Brothers has a couple of pretty phlox seeds that were out of stock that I will look for again later on.

Fine! Talk me into it! :rofl:

I mean… I told you before that me even attempting to grow annuals is entirely your fault. When I saw your first little bouquets I was hooked after only growing perennials for so many years.

I also found a baby’s breath and a cosmos that I needed. Ha.

hahaha it’s kinda turned into a “have a bad day? visit rareseeds.com” situation for me :joy: they don’t have quite the assortment as johnny’s but the shipping is WAY cheaper!

My first sunflower of the year is blooming!

OMG. I ordered these seeds based on the only pic they showed which looks down on the flower. I really should have googled pictures of them from other views! :rofl: The last pic is mine. I have a friend who wants it.
