All the plants in the meadow are really growing away well .
Every year is different . The first year it was mainly annuals that flowered.
Now each year is different as the perennials grow and spread some plants such as the Field Scabious, Early Purple Orchids, Harebells and wild form of Cat Mint took 5 years before they flowered.

Thank you so much for this glimpse through your camera lens. I will enjoy visiting often.
ReplyDeleteI read your information on mole plant. Our little acre here in northern Indiana, USA is just riddled with moles. Unfortunately, if you are right, our hard winters and late frosts might render the plant useless. Perhaps we would have to grow it as an annual? Would that be expensive or do they readily grow from harvested seed?
