I love Foxgloves! My zone 4 garden is not always kind to these plants, they often die off from harsh winter temps, but I keep trying. Even if I can only grow them as annuals, they add such color and charm to the garden.

What’s is your ‘must have’?
I learned how to grow Nasturtium while working at a small garden center.
Working in the greenhouse I was instructed to drop 5 seeds into each little 4″pot.
Within no time, the little lily pad leaves were emerging.
I loved how quickly they grew and their slightly messy, trailing vines.
That was the first year I planted Nasturtium in our window boxes.
I don’t believe I have missed a year since.
Nasturtium is one of my ‘must haves’.
What are yours?

I started my Zinnia seeds today!
I didn’t plant as many last year, and I missed them.
That will not be the case this year.
A bright spot
Good Morning Weekend!
Let’s make it a good one.

My first try at starting Pansy seeds in the greenhouse this year.
They are just starting to bloom, and the colors were worth the wait.
