Thank you for the kind words.

I love hearing feed back on my gardening efforts - I know it is success mixed with failures, but I keep trying b/c plants, gardening and especially flowers cheer me - and my neighbors- up so much.

This beautiful purple wave petunia came up all by itself - have no idea where it came from:

I’ve had volunteer petunia seedlings here in Wisconsin, too.
Sometimes I don’t notice them until they bloom.
Had some germinate near where I composted the petunia plants.
There they were, putting on a blooming show at the wood’s edge.
Also had them germinate below large pots of petunias.
They even sprouted in the cracks between bricks below the pots.
Pretty neat.
I find pansy volunteers too, always a welcome sight.

Cheers for spring coming!
🥳
