July 4th!

 
Last month, we ran across a sale on bulbs at our local Mardens.  Since we had a flower bed that didn't have anything in it, we picked up a ton of bulbs to fill it up.  One of the packages was labeled as "Norwegian Daffodils" and were like nothing that we had ever seen before.  We were skeptical but, I planted about 40 bulbs spread out generously in the empty patch.  Not even 3 weeks later, we were treated to this:
 


The best part is, there are 3 more of these getting ready to open.  Our wildflower patch has some new arrivals.  Some interesting Clover flowers that I have never seen before and some purple Bachelors' Buttons.
 


If you are noticing a penchant for blue and purple flowers over other colors, it's not by happenstance.  Sarah really loves purple and her choices show it.
