The Viburnums are Blooming

My viburnums are beginning to come into bloom.  We have three different varieties here on our property and they bloom at slightly different times.  All of them, however, will be covered with red berries which will ripen to a dark purple.  The birds adore them.  They are so very lovely!  Want to know more about viburnums?

Experimenting with Old Seeds

This morning I filled a flat with potting soil and planted it with the contents of these two seed packages.  The Zinnias are from 2008 and the Cosmos are from 2006.  Who knows how many, if any, of these seeds will germinate.  We'll know more in a week or two.
