Salpiglossis ‘Royale Mix’


This pic shows three different colors of salpiglossis, which I have growing in a pot. It’s another one of my favorites. Germination rate in the greenhouse wasn’t great, but I’m happy with even just these few plants. It definitely seems to do better in a nice, fluffy potting mix than in the ground in clayey soil. This one gets bright filtered light most of the day.

Cerinthe major purpurescens


Cerinthe major purpurescens is blooming right now in the garden. I really love this plant. First spied and bought it in a 4″ pot at Annie’s Annuals, but now grow it from seed. Seems to tolerate full sun to dappled shade.

First Test Video!

Ok, here goes! This is just a little practice clip I grabbed off the camera where I’m telling my puppies (Oh, and did I mention I’m prone to high-pitched baby talk when I talk to my dogs?) how cute they are… over… and over… and over again… sheesh! But, hey, it’s a step toward future educational or at least informational gardening-related videos!
