Wildflowers

Wlid flowers

I’m slowly making my way from east to west in my garden design, but in the meantime, there’s a huge expanse of empty nothingness in between.  Brian suggested we throw out some wildflower seed.  At least there won’t be mud there! he said.

So we tilled up an area toward the end of the south west berm and re-leveled it.  The Adams County extension office assured us that we didn’t need to amend the soil, so we decided to try it out. Just mix the seed with a little sand so you can throw it our more evenly.  We threw out 15 lbs of rocky Mountain wildflower seed, and the results were beautiful.
