below is a photo of my wildflowers that grew from seed (from my valarie). Can anyone tell me what is what---well besides the baby's breath that is??? And of course I know that the pink are Double Delight Echinacea--they are NOT part of the wildflowers, but merely growing next to them. flowers-6-30-10006.jpg" alt="[Linked Image]" class="post-image" style="height:auto!important;max-width:100%!important;"/> This is one of the wildflower mix flowers too. This is just a better view of it. flowers-6-30-10009.jpg" alt="[Linked Image]" class="post-image" style="height:auto!important;max-width:100%!important;"/>

Thanks dodge Barb--yes I will save you some seeds.---Remind me!!!! But remember I bought this as a plant in a 1/2 gallon pot. But surely Bill has the directions some place in his vast repitore.

I like them because the stem is firm so it's a good cut flower.
