    Hey everyone
    last weekend was a great one.
    last winter i planted some seeds in a pot and well, now i have flowers.
    i think they are annuals.
    i will soon transplant them in the garden, just waiting for the weather to be...stable, and reliable, and not surprise me with a frost.

    What pretty little flowers Calin. I like the contrast between the dark blue and the white. :-D

    thanks
    yes. indeed. and i sowed the seeds in november, i guess.
    all the time on the balcony. in cold weather.
    so i guess they liked it there.
    i will transplant them outside in the garden, next weekend.

    Those are very pretty. I have some Nemophila seeds, I got them from Thompson & Morgan last year. Yep, they are an annual.
    I am going to put them in pots at the base of a couple of vines and in some pots hanging on a couple of fence panels.
