I have their book, 'Cut Flower Garden.' Every time I look to buy seed from them, they're sold out! I'll have to keep checking back. Their website is SO beautiful...

Busy morning - Walmart at 7 to shop. As of 11:45, the cinnamon apples have been in the slow cooker since 9:30, the Bolognese sauce is simmering until 1:00 & the Cole slaw is made. Company ETA is 6:30 so I am taking a break for a cup of tea before I clean the kitchen & help mom with the guest room.
It’s been a ‘beautiful’ morning with clouds hanging low on the mountains & a nice, gentle rain. We had rain last night as well - might get us out of the drought we were in. What I planted Wednesday looks very happy.
Bunbun update: he or she has received a ‘thumbs down’ from mom. Against advice, mom put some hostas in the ground & Bunbun has been seen scouting the area. Rabbits evidently love hostas ... all varieties. Bunbun is going to be humanely trapped & relocated - I figure the church cemetery is a good spot - cover from predators nearby, a field of alfalfa next door, no nearby gardens to raid & the folks in the cemetery won’t mind. The Veterans cemetery I used to visit (one of my dearest friends is buried there) had rabbits & deer that came out at dusk & owls hooting in the woods - seemed special to me, so I look forward to maybe seeing Bunbun when I visit my dad.
I love dahlias, but I can’t seem to grow them. This year, I bought 3 different pretty ones at two different garden centers. I couldn’t help myself. Trying again. Each one is in a different area. Hopefully one will survive and give me beautiful blossoms. Fingers crossed!
