Thanks for the thoughts, Claire & Karen B.
Actually, many of the annuals you mention are already here... just in my
wife's garden in the sun. I grew nigella some years back, my son likes
Cleome so that ends up out here most years. The wife grows several nicotiana
each year in here raised beds. Viola are out there to dress salads and/or
desserts. I grow several of the perennial digitalis in my garden and started
some bi-annuals for JoAn this fall from seed sent to me in a trade. "Pam's
Choice".
I may one day add a nice larkspur to my garden. Anyone growing a
particular strain they like best?
