New additions

Last Saturday, we headed to the Blanco square for the monthly Market Day. Bonus: The Blanco County Master Gardeners held their spring plant sale (to which we donated a lot of plants). I came home with two Maximilian sunflowers (Helianthus maximiliani) – last year's drought decimated all but two of ours – and one blue phacelia (Phacelia patuliflora). The phacelia came with a tropical sage. And I've been able to collect seeds already. It's related to blue curls (Phacelia congesta), which has nearly taken over our back yard this year. Lots of blue curl seeds to collect in the very near future!

Me by some of the plants I donated.
