Garden update: Cosmos are pretty

[alchemicink]

All of the vegetables are pretty much the same as the last time I updated. (The leaning pepper plant seems to be permanently in that position now lol) But I didn't talk much about how the wildflowers were doing last time. I currently have several beautiful blooms, so I'm glad they're doing well.

A photo from a few days ago under the cut:


This was a variety pack of seeds, and this is the first time I've ever successfully grown any flowers at all, so I had no idea what they were. But I sent the photo to a friend who said they are Cosmos.

Neat! I just think they're pretty. I'm looking forward to watching them continue to bloom.

Amazing how easy it is to grow flowers when you don't put them somewhere out of sight and completely forget about them 😅

I have cosmos in my butterfly seed blend. They have sprouted but weren't blooming last I checked.

Hope they start blooming for you soon! I planted these back in April but they've only just started blooming in the past week or so

Beautiful!! I love the color. :D

Me too! They're eye-catching and, conveniently, also my favorite colors

That’s the best way of growing flowers! 🎉 The cosmos really are lovely; that colour is gorgeous.

Thank you! Shades of purple and pink are my favorite so I'm thrilled with the colors so far
