Wildflower Discoveries

Letting my yard go wild was one part laziness and one part curiosity.  After I discovered the Mexican Evening Primrose, I began to wonder what else was out t
here!

I didn't put weed killer on my yard, just went after the stuff I knew I disliked with a vengeance, and let the rest grow.  Here's what I discovered.

Mexican Hat

Horsemint

These Tiny White Beauties

They're called Frog Fruit - what a cute name!

These Tiny Pink Beauties

(Possibly a type of bluet...not sure)

Pink Morning Glory

There was one pink morning glory last year,

and I scattered some more seed, 

so this one might be wild, might be planted.

White Morning Glory

These were covering our yard last year,

so they weren't "discovered" so much,

but I'm happy to have them back!

I love the wildflowers in my yard,

but I wanted to add some more color too,

so here's some lovelies I bought.

These were all grouped together in their pots...

even now only a few have been put in the ground.

They sure do look pretty though.
