Hello, everyone.
I don't have the canonical bluebonnet pictures to show, nor Indian paintbrush, but I do have a couple little things from around the place.
The Mystic Spires hybrid salvia is still going strong from last year, with lots of new growth around the base and beautiful flowers.
Dill: a little love-note to the pollinators, and to Swallowtail butterfly babies as well!
I have no idea what this little blue-leaved, white-flowered thing is. It sprouts with abandon in the vegetable garden. After a while it gets weedy looking and we pull it.
This one appears to be a primrose of some kind. It may be spontaneous. Or it may be a completely surprising survival from some wildflower seeds that were planted last spring...and then migrated from their spot? I don't know. Spontaneity seems more likely. There are a couple of these in the garden. They have the four petals of the Oenotheras but that's all I can actually say about them.
Yes, all the cracks you see in the ground are really there. It's a dry spring, and even with regular watering the soil just wants to crack.
This garden also has tomatoes, some of which have flowers already, and a couple of eggplants, and a Spanish pepper variety. Separately there is a large pot with three more of those Padron type peppers, which look really happy.
