The garden is on fire!

Well, not on fire at the moment...it's POURING down rain right now along with thunder and an insane amount of lightening! I'm preparing a slideshow of before, during and after of my gardens. This is my birdbath as of yesterday afternoon. All of the blooms you see here came from seeds. I'm most proud of the marigolds which I have NEVER even dreamed of growing from seed before this year. In my largest garden, the zinnias and lantana are crazy, crazy. I think this weekend I'm going to put out a few more roses and maybe a hydrangea or two in my kitchen window bed. Billy Graham is growing so nicely that I might have to get him a friend to grow with. For those of you who remember my jasmine, Aretha, she made the move with us in November, and she is also growing nicely...although not anywhere a vicinity next to Billy. That would just be weird, right?
