Hello everyone! My hard drive crashed on my laptop so I haven't been able to post! I'm stealing my boyfriends computer while he's gone to write this one :-)
I got some plants from
Thyme After Thyme to plant in my native wildflower garden behind my fence. If you recall, this is what it looked like before:
Very plain and not a lot going on besides some weeds when we don't take care of it.
I did a lot of research to buy native plants that won't be invasive and that will attract pollinators and hummingbirds. This is some of what I got:

Echinacea purpurea 'Crazy Pink' |
I planted all of these along with the wildflower seeds I purchased before. I'm hoping they start to geriminate soon!
My seeds are still doing awesome, some of the impatiens have actually started to flower. I will get some photos up on my next blog post. I'm hoping to harden them off next weekend and get them planted outside in 2 weeks.
Just a little update, hopefully I can get a longer blog post once I get my new computer!
