This is blooming today - October 1st; this is in a bed that was really damaged by hail in July and I kinda just let it be the rest of the summer. Anyone know what it is? I know I planted it from seed. I think I want more - very pretty!

Looks like a delphinium.

OH! That's right! I remember having a heck of a time with starting these from seed - I guess one made it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it! Like my sister said - makes it more beautiful knowing the storm it surived and came out looking so pretty. Tough little flower she is!

Helping the world one seed at a time

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee
