I always try to have a row of cut flowers in the garden. This year, I got them out late, it got hot and dry. I now have Lilliputian cutting flowers. Very cute, but it takes alot to fill a vase.

My cosmos are about 6 inches tall, should be three feet. Same with zinnias. The blooms aren’t much bigger than the LIAMS. LOL

The only “flowers” for cutting or otherwise that I have are really nothing more than weeds as I have never planted any.

There is so much flora along the creek that we have absolutely NO clue what half of it is. We did discover 2 Bay Laurels and even MORE grapes than we initially thought, as well as tons more wild blackberries!!!!

Unfortunately, the Japanese beetles have also discovered all the flora and are doing a serious number on the grape leaves.
