Spreading seeds

Yellow flax
With rain in our forecast today and tomorrow, I decided this morning would be as good as time as any to spread seeds that I've been collecting this year. My stash included antelope horn, bluebonnet, yellow flax, standing cypress, skeleton-plant, and probably a few others that I can't remember. Fingers crossed for a spectacular spring 2019 wildflower show in the Meadow! (Thanks for the photos, James! And a video, too?)

Bluebonnet seeds

That's a great shot of the bluebonnet seeds. I could have sworn that they were pebbles. We have started to convert our septic fields into a meadow. We have mowed and gathered for 2 years to impoverish the soil. I already noticed some wildflowers starting but I have been collecting seeds from the natives that grow in my garden to broadcast. In the future I am hoping to grow them out there and not in the garden areas. So much work to keep them in check.

How wonderful that you have all of those seeds to spread. I'm sure it will look great!

And yay, today we're getting some rain! Should help wash those seeds more into the ground....
