Coneflower seeds. |
One of the awesome things about being a gardener is that I get to witness how
the little seeds from the above became these tall plants full of pink flowers below.

I planted these seeds back in September, it was time to put them in their own little pot.
Then I will plant them at the garden where they will go to sleep in the winter to
wake up sometime in the spring, when weather gets warm.
Oh, my life in the city! Most of the things I do, I do them inside my cage.
We around here call it fence, got to have it, it also comes in handy for the picture's backdrop.
Cutie is always around helping me, where would I be without him!
Have you ever wondered how long are the roots of a 2" seedling?

Poor guy, he works so hard that he passed out in the middle of the job!

Very interesting demo about the length of the roots. Cutie turned out not to be much help after all!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed seeing the various stages of the coneflowers' growth! I have them in my garden every year...and they're multiplying--they come back with more plants and strength after every winter!

Isn't it rewarding to make more flowers from existing ones? That's the process I enjoy the most about gardening. Your garden is BEAUTIFUL. I love it! How does one garden without a companion, right? Cutie is so adorable.
ReplyDeleteThat is a fantastic experience to see the seeds germinate into plants.
