A yard full of Wild Flowers!

Did you know you can get a batch of wild flowers from your local seed shop that is deer resistant. If you are in an area where deer can be a curse to your yard, this is a great investment. Just like any other wild flower mix the first year -- nothing to shout about, second year -- you will get quite a show and by the third year and there after -- WOW-EEE...You will have a nice flower bed throughout the entire summer. When you finally approach fall and on into winter you let the beds reseed themselves for the summer to follow. With a little water, lots of sun and very little weeding you can have a pretty showy yard..

Third year, as you can see you get a good variety of color. 

True Pink!


There are so many poppy buds I can't wait to see them all in bloom.
   Happy Gardening, Betty Jo
