Thought I would finally get around to sharing pictures from my garden. These are either currently blooming or have bloomed in the past month

I will save some. I have had a couple of requests for that. I have no idea where I got it but it sure turned out to be interesting looking one.

All gorgeous! I love the hollyhock, too. Don't need seeds but will really enjoy looking at pics of them in your and Alan's gardens!

Are you sure? Geez I need to get them before they fall off, from what some others have told me they are kind of weedy.

Plant in Fall for Summer blooms... that sounds about right, Jo. Marie will harvest her seeds once they are spent and spread happily around the Valley!

That "fluffy" flower Marie has growing there is mighty pretty!

Alan, I was interested that they sprout so soon and can take 2 seasons to put out blooms. During the first season, does the entire plant die back and disappear?... or, what does it look like?
