Thank you for the encouragement Ginny .. perhaps I will give it another go this year

Have GREAT hopes for the 2 wildflower gardens we developed last summer. The Hydro was cutting back (ditching) on our country road, after they had gone for the day I walked down and was greeted with huge mounds of dirt topped by Wild Phlox, Black Eyed susans, Violas .. and another dusty mauve kinda flower. I bootled back home, grabbed a bucket and shovel, dug them up(while furiously batting away mosquitos) and transplanted them around the house .. AND .. they took!! Here's hoping they'll come back :-)
You can barely see them in this pic( at the back) .. I bricked in the garden which has a Mugo Pine smack in the middle of it .. I had also already planted some pink and white Impatiens.

Again .. thanks :-)
