Gosh I so wish we could grow Lupines down here! They are beautiful.

OKay then!! Wow nice flower show again Gardenweed, those are OUTSTANDING! The colors, and that deep red one and the white one is so beautiful too, I love the water beads on the plants and the one taken from ground level.
Glad I asked, off to sowing my 100 Lupine seeds

I practically fell to my knees and wept at sight of the first crocus...

large seeds do not need to be nicked if they are ws. that goes for 4:00s too.

Gardenweed, I chuckled at the thought of you weeping at the sight of the first crocus! I'm so excited about wintersowing lupines!
