Yep,... little fuzzy wuzzies! They will just grow this season and
if they get leaves about 3-4 in long by fall, you will have flowers next season. Mine all bloomed early this year. I have twelve babies too, growing them up for next year in pots!

And surprise, my butterfly bush/weed is blooming too. They are about 15 in tall now. I am hoping it will bush up by next year? I've never grown this plant before. I didn't expect it to bloom at all this summer either. LOL

Here is a picture of the street side garden on the city property I've been building. The butterfly weed is in the upper right, just before the shadow starts. There is one in the lower left front too.
The gazanias and alyssum I did from seed too and they are doing well. The string is to dissuade people walking their dogs to keep them off and so far it is working...it just doesn't look terrific!

I'm including a pic of a new grass I did as an experiment, called Bunny tails. (Lagurus). It is an annual, but is very cute I think.
I did it from seed also, that I bought at Park's.
It was very easy from seed, but it needs warm temps to get going. So I did it inside.
