Sproutletts!


My love for fresh (and brightly colored) flowers as well as the idea of having floral cuttings around the house inspired us to plant flowers in our front yard.  Last weekend we planted Sunflowers, Zinnias, Snapdragons, and a cut flower mixture seeds.  Unfortunately, a patch of dirt was all we had to show for all of our initial hard work after weeding, digging, planting and watering.  At that moment our impatient sides kicked in and we joked that we should have also planted a few potted plants alongside the seeds, but since then our patience has paid off and we have little "sproutletts" popping up.  Now the challenge is discerning weed from sproutlett, and waiting for the blooms!
