Today at VP, I was able to get (half-price) some of the tomato and pepper plants I needed to fill out the rows a little.  The ones I sowed are taking their time.

I think I’ve ID’d the purple plant–it’s supposed to be Mexican ruellia, so definitely not a native.  It bloomed purple today.  At some point I’ll move it.

I finally sowed all the flower seeds I had left, into various beds.  More amaranth (love-lies-bleeding), jasmine-scented white nicotiana, tithonia (Mexican torch), assorted heirloom columbines, African marigolds, more CA orange poppies, and a part-shade wildflower mix.  Most of it is non-native, so shoot me.  I’m going for a 360-surround cottage garden.  Must Have Flowers.

I’ve included a photo of Loucious and Billie having a standoff.
