The flowers are beautiful. Seems you've done well, even if not planned, to have flowers blooming in every phase of the spring and summer seasons. <br /><br />With all the outside work...I think most knitters would give you a break for not having a FO. Too many activities are calling for our summer attention!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09497292872289897109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4735305373419794722.post-24975630385962437882014-06-20T16:18:25.070-04:002014-06-20T16:18:25.070-04:00Pretty!

I love plants that thrive on neglect--they're my kind of plants. <br /><br />So, I had a hard time growing nasturtiums until they moved into the front flowerbed. I had planted them in back in the bed with the squash because I'd read that they deter squash bugs. (they didn't) The next November, I found one growing in the front flower bed. We don't have squirrels, so I'm not sure how they jumped the house, but they have taken over and colonized an area that can't really grow anything else, so I've left them well enough alone. Between the irises, bachelor buttons, zinnias, and the cosmos, I have no control over that bed at all, but the nasturtiums seem to hold their own pretty well. But when I tried to grow them on purpose, they were sad, anemic-looking plants. Go figure.........Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00210913161986899741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4735305373419794722.post-42392031141430376782014-06-16T13:01:04.873-04:002014-06-16T13:01:04.873-04:00I've got zillions of squirrels, and they'v...I've got zillions of squirrels, and they've never bothered the irises.
