u/Cronerous

Today was a big day - I removed the tops of all my winter-sown milk jugs. Shown here are the native varieties: some Monarda punctata (my favorite native plant, it’s just so… Seussical), Asclepias tuberosa, Aquilegia canadensis, Eutrochium purpureum, and an Agastache foeniculum nativar that does particularly well in the shadier spots in my yard. This was my second year winter sowing, and my first year doing it with seeds gathered from my own plants! Incredibly rewarding.

(Don’t worry, I put them in a shadier spot right after taking this picture, so they could acclimate.)
