*****Adding a new item, again, to my haves list. Available--just ask....See below....


Spent the day helping my daughter get things planted. Not all plants--just the hardy stuff.
She has a hairline fracture in her left knee and is on crutches.
I will be pulling double duty in garden work for a while....well, what are Moms for.....

She has a small area by her mailbox that used to have my 4 O'clock s "Broken Colors"
in there. Now they come up every year--Lots and Lots!

So--I dug up a good amount and will pot it up in cups or something.
Be warned that these require about at least a 2' square area per plant. Full sun too....
They grow big and bloom beautifully---blooms are whichever combo of colors--neat!
Hence the "Broken Colors" name.

Here's some pictures.....YES! These are ALL from the same plant!
Last picture--a ripe seed--which you will want to collect by the cup-full in October....
OR---they will come up all over---just like MG.'s But! Who would not want this beautiful plant?
