Picture-Palooza

So many things I would have to say, so instead I shall simply SHOW you the greatness.  We went, flower shoppping!

The garden:





The Dill. Sadly is getting quite sad but it still managed to show me its little yellow flowers before it took a turn for the worst!  I'm not sure why, but the whole bottom of it is yellowish and then the upper leaves are now turning to a sad sort of brown.  It began so bushy and stayed that way until I tookthe vacation, but the dill never really liked mom I guess.  Maybe we'll revive it yet!
This is a new addition since the last blog but still got planted recently where as the flowers we aquired last night are still in the ground.  Its very cute and is drought resistant.  I believe!!! this is my aunty's favorite kind of plant.  Only stands a mere 2 inches tall right now!
 This picture was just a quick shot toshow off our nicely growing dahlias which aren't saggy yet, and some brand new pots mom got over vacation of begonias! Not my favorite flower, but I like these because their leaves are as red as they are!

The above speak for themselves! BEAUTIFUL!!!!

 
The shopping spree!!!!
No idea what they are called but I like these they are very purple and very nice.  We have been searching for something purple with some height that wasn't too derpy looking for some time.  Hopefully this is the match we've been looking for!!!


Mom's echinacea
below: MORE echinacea w/ a spiky celosia, a plant called sparklers, and a HUGE pot of petunias!



 Yes so many plants so little time. Not even pictured here is a new oregano, jade (nifty cactus thing), a second enormous petunia pot of purples, and red puffy plants like the yellow ones above. I just couldn't help myself and neither could mom. We love out plants! There's also five coleus not shown yet.  Can't wait to give more sneak peeks!!! Keep your eyes peeled.

The Mystery Plant!!!

That's right ladies and gentlemen, we have a mystery plant. Whilst weeding this morning I discovered in my sprout box, a plant which I haven't the faintest idea what it is! Personally it could be anything, but I've planted so many kinds of seeds in the sprout box that it be one of oh so many things that finally decided to sprout. At first I was under the impression the fairly large sprout might be a coreopsis, or perhaps a daisy of some kind since those two types of plants had been planted first in this sprout box. But then I checked the other labels on the box, discovering (that firstly, my organizational skills leave something to be desired), but that it could also possibly be a pansy, a shasta daisy, or even a Livingston daisy. I mean there are far too many possibilities. This also leads me to believe that if this single plant, all on its own managed out of the rubble left over dirt in my now empty sprout box, that it was MEANT for me to find it! I am meant to nurture this partially squid like plant and discover its true origin. Anyone with information on this plants DNA donors is more than welcome to let me know, here is its baby picture!
