The other day I noticed this tiny marigold in our parking lot, blooming in the crack between the curb and the pavement. I'm always so impressed when I find garden flowers that strike out on their own! We also have snapdragons growing along the top of the wall near the front door to our building -- probably from seeds that fell from a windowbox, or were dropped by birds. No one tends them there, but they seem to flourish.
Volunteers like the little marigold seem incredibly bold!
ReplyDeleteHow was the grouse?
I used to call snap dragons bunny mouths.
ReplyDeleteI just realized I missed the grouse report. Good to know that not everything turns out well for someone who is a seasoned chef. I still think it's better to try new things that to go with the tried and true recipes.
ReplyDeleteI love it when nature reminds us that it is still the most potent force on the planet...
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty! We had a volunteer snapdragon behind our hedge this year - no doubt from the PREVIOUS year when we tossed the "done" flowers behind there. It was so fun to see that unexpected spot of color.
