Oh goodness I love seeing these flowers! I was going to write this week about how miserable I am with these last few weeks of grey and rain, but then I realised no one, even me, wanted to read about that. You provided the perfect antidote!

Thank you! I did it for myself to start with; it made me cheerier just looking through photos to include.

Cosmos are one of my favorites too! I’ve got lots of yellow and pink to plant this spring. We’re being teased with 70 degree days here in Indiana, but then we drop back to cold. I’m so ready to have the sun shining and no need for long sleeves! The trees are too, as they are already beginning to bud. Here’s to a glorious spring coming soon!

Today is our 2nd in a row of near-60 degree temps. I did notice the buds are starting, the silly things! Cheers to cosmos and spring!

Thank you! They were probably my favorites last season.

These flowers are beautiful! Here in North Carolina (zone 8), I’m starting seeds indoors for many of these this week. I do love the muted colors of our winter garden (no snow this year, but lots of brown), but I can’t wait for the flowers to return.

Thank you, Bethany! We'll be starting our indoor flower seeds soon (zone 5/6). We did start stratifying the more high-maintenance seeds.
