I am such a dead header, but I think some got a chance to set seeds later in the season.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-34733608036399083842009-01-30T23:36:00.000-06:002009-01-30T23:36:00.000-06:00You will have to tell me if your Foxglove return i...You will have to tell me if your Foxglove return in 2009! I've not had them reseed for me, nor have they returned for a second year!

I am so ready for spring and gardening time to get here!<BR/><BR/>Tina,<BR/>I have some pics exported for my next installment, where you will see that you were right about the angel trumpet. You have good eyes! I have what I call a moonflower, which I think is a datura, which I have that reseeds, and this spring, found a purple blooming one. <BR/><BR/>Marnie,<BR/>I am a plant collector. I think that's why I am going for a cottage garden look. The foxgloves I've grown in the past have not survived the winter, or reseeded. I hope these do. (Some are perennial, and some biennial.) I had several kinds, and they all bloomed! I hope I have some in there still.<BR/><BR/>Cameron,<BR/>Thanks for the encouragement and compliments. A lot of the pics I'm now posting are "reruns" for you, as I've put some of them up in the cottage garden forum. I like posting pics here, because I can put as many as I want on my own space.<BR/><BR/>FlowerLady,<BR/>You were one who also inspired me to start blogging. Thanks for all your encouragement, too. I am still having problems catching up, but hope to this weekend.<BR/><BR/>Gail,<BR/>I'm in the upper 90s right now in my blog posts. I'm glad you got some ideas from my flower bed. I want to try some different kinds of dahlias, too. My husband didn't pay attention to me when I asked him not to throw away the sack they were in in the car port.<BR/><BR/>Rose,<BR/>Between the plants growing, and me planting more and more, it did fill out pretty well. I am thinking it will be fuller sooner this year.<BR/><BR/>Kris and Sweet Bay,<BR/>I had tried to figure out how to make a collage so I could put something different than all that snow for my title photo. I gave up and found this one. It has been noticed, so I think it was a good choice. I love my wash tubs!<BR/><BR/>Patsi,<BR/>Thanks for the compliment and well wishes for my plants. They are truly having a challenging winter with fluctuating temps, and snow coming down, melting, and coming down again. The pine leaf penstemon should be fine, though. It's been there awhile.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-67854488546877804292009-01-30T04:40:00.000-06:002009-01-30T04:40:00.000-06:00Enjoyed your post and lovely plants for your new b...Enjoyed your post and lovely plants for your new bed.

I will if my annuals didn't reseed. If my memory is serving me correctly, I think that area of yours is a good one to expand a little at a time, unless you are in the mood to do more at a time.<BR/><BR/>I have some other areas that need plants moved or added, so I will keep busy.
