I have been gathering seeds to start new plants. I have a collection of blue, white, and pink Rose of Sharon. I just yesterday gathered a bunch of seeds for Beautyberry bush. I have a ton of seeds for Cut and Come Again Zinnias. Those will be sewn in my flower beds this weekend. I plan on spreading mulch, broadcasting the seeds, then raking the mulch. I will have lots of Zinnias next summer. Will do the same with Marigolds. Oh and I got those seeds originally from David's seeds. https://davidsgardenseeds.com I have yet to get seed from this veteran owned company that did not germinate. I love their seeds.
I planted morning glories last summer called Grandpa Ott's Morning Glory. They have a deep purple bloom. They are beautiful. Been gathering the seeds for those to plant along my fence. I also got some seed for Sky Blue Vine. Hopefully they will germinate. That flowering vine is so pretty. I have yet to find it at a nursery. And I am prepping my garden beds for spring. I have planted greens like mustard and chard in my flower beds. And I am almost ready to set out my broccoli and brussel sprouts. I do have sweet potatoes to harvest now. I love my garden. Oh and I got a firecracker shrub. I put it out in front. It is supposed to attract butterflies. Hope so.
I have a honeysuckle vine to put on the fence along with a coral vine. Both are loved by bees. Wish me luck.
