Happy Flower Friday!
Sue shared a lovely photo of Maggie in the butterfly bush!
This week I'm focused on volunteers in the garden. No not people helping me weed but plants that I didn't sow that are growing on their own. The plants I'm most charmed by are the impatiens. I didn't plant any this year and now I'm thinking I would like a lot of them next year.
Many of them have appeared in pots!
And some are truly a surprise like this impatien that managed to grow in a wee crack where the patio floor meets the wall!
....And then there is this plant. I have no idea what it is and I certainly didn't plant it. It reminds me of either a sunflower or a jack o'lantern. Do you know what it is? Is it a weed?
Wishing you a safe and happy weekend!
I love Sue's photo of Maggie. I love impatiens! I first saw them decades ago when we moved north of Houston. They grew lushly in front of a neighbor's house. I asked what her secret was for her abundant blooms ,and she said "Osmocote". Hers came back every year in that mild climate. I was never able to successfully grow them, but I sure love to see them.
