If you haven’t seen how I got started creating my wildflower meadow, be sure to look for posts 1 and 2 from 2018.
August brought a huge amount of color and full growth to these wildflowers. The work is finally starting to pay off! There are some truly stunning colors developing.
By the end of August, the Mexican Sunflowers and Cosmos were around 4 feet tall. It’s clear that the Black Eyed Susans are going to thrive in this area, and the Zinnias add a nice splash of color. Most of the small/short flowers are done blooming, and these taller species are taking over to put on quite a show.
Beautiful pictures! Thank you for documenting your great project. Best of luck for the coming season!
Are you getting any Foxgloves? I have some blooming now here in PA. I planted Eden’s Wildflower Mix last year and got a wide variety. No Foxgloves until this year though.
I don’t know about in 2019. I didn’t see any in 2018.
Hi! Saw your flower seed review on Eden Brothers and came over to watch your grass grow! lol How did the wildflower meadow do this summer 2019? Hoping it’s still blooming away!
Hi Melissa, 2019 is looking great! The flowers came back very strong, especially the yellow coreopsis and black eyed susans. I’m starting to post pictures of the flowers now, so here’s a quick preview. I hope to post more in the next week or two.
