Planted out my zinnias too soon and a late frost killed them although I covered them. Won't make this mistake next spring. Direct sowed some and they're coming along nicely. Tithonia is beautiful. Did you plant your zinnia seeds?Patricia Burrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09001236302904075580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657196151040818258.post-47559967599907228702020-06-07T00:28:34.732-04:002020-06-07T00:28:34.732-04:00Plant mail is the best.Plant mail is the best.Patricia Burrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09001236302904075580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657196151040818258.post-6767578198561527672020-06-07T00:27:01.879-04:002020-06-07T00:27:01.879-04:00Woodland phlox has become my favorite and so aroma...Woodland phlox has become my favorite and so aromatic.

I enjoy reading your post because your interest are similar to mine. Just one person who is trying to make to most of their space. Some of your plants are the ones I have and some are not as I live in Hawaii. I like you have Coleus ( my favorite), impatients and other plants that bloom with color.<br /><br />Please keep up the hard work in your garden ans your blog. I look forward to seeing your successes and failures in this wonderful hobby.<br /><br />October 28, 2015 at 7:38 PM<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657196151040818258.post-59586877701296632592015-03-01T13:07:30.933-05:002015-03-01T13:07:30.933-05:00Thank you Linda for visiting.

This summer I brought back plants as gifts from Georgia and some had spider mites. They shared the space with my seedlings. I think this caused their demise as the plants lived outside in Georgia and were brought inside when I came home. I won't do this again. It disappoints me to buy seeds and nurture them only to see them die. I won't stop sowing seeds though. Your blog is nice and motivational.
