Good for you! The wild lupine. I don't know what yours are but saw a photo at American Meadows growing in a meadow in CT with daisies. I asked them, and even though they were featured for one zone warmer or in a New England mix, they said they should be fine in my zone.

I had to buy a larger quantity to get them so have plenty to spare. They look tall and lavender so I WS'ed some just to see what happens.

I'm planting up lots of my old seeds, too, little to lose at this point. Also sowing saved seeds, two saved a couple years back, didn't save too many but one head of rudbeckia has a lot of seeds in it.

Some I don't know how to save yet, how and when to harvest.

Have sowed already lots of columbine and glad I read that thread where germination is so slow, like months, so I'll allow for that.

Woo hoo! We have started practically at the same time. :)

Yay! Keep up the hard work! Congrats on getting your first 5 done. The first ones are always the hardest.

It took me a while to get started too, but once I sowed those first containers, the momentum grew. This is my first year and I am so excited to see how it goes. My mother in law used to grow lupines years ago and I always loved them, absolutely stunning flowers, good luck with them. I look forward to you posting a picture when they bloom.
