The pinkypurple may be weeds. Everything can be wild if let loose. Particularly humans.
yes i grew wild flowers this year also but not in those quanitys
@RoyMillar I still don't know what the seeds look like. Certsinly spread very easily.
I hope to grow some more potted ones next year also
Are you in the Southern Hemisphere?

Thanks. Yep your turn to enjoy winter.
So pretty! I've cleared out the gardens, trimmed the vines, and spent an afternoon raking and bagging the first round of leaves. Now there is invasive English ivy to trim and pull around the fencing, and chop off the first fallen tree.
Clarification: Fall is 'here'.

Fraid not. I have no memory for names, just buy what I think will look good. The pinkypurple flowers are like a weed but because I think them good to view I've let them spread of their own accord. Nearly everything is growing in pots.

Posted by FernappleIt is time for the flowering of one of my favourite roses.
Posted by FrostyJimBerries do very well in Alaska... I'm growing strawberries, honeyberries, raspberries, gooseberries, and black currants ...oh and rhubarb too - it goes well with berries in a pie, jam, or cobler!
Posted by FrostyJimSo that's how it works...
Posted by FrostyJim...why didn't I think of that?
Posted by FernappleIts the time for one of my favourite flowers, Primula florindae, the giant cowslip to flower. The cinnamon scent fills the garden on warm days.
Posted by FrostyJimIt's almost salad season. It is amazing how fast my salad greens grow in just 3 weeks since setting out my seedlings in our long Alaska summer days...

Posted by FernappleNature is the best gardener still. All nature asks is a little space, that's all. Maybe no more than a slightly leaky fall pipe, and a bit of neglected wall, and you have a perfect tiny garden.
Posted by JolantaNematodes are helpful too.
Posted by KateOahuThe Ala’ala wai nui wahine in my little terrarium that I planted a month ago is blooming.
Posted by JolantaGround beetles.

Posted by FrostyJimI picked my first 2024 rhubarb... so I made cobbler - yum!
