Thanks for the compliments.

Believe me, if you can get those larkspur started now, before the ground freezes, they'll do well and be tall, stately plants by next summer. You just need to get the seeds on the ground now and mist them lightly every day, maybe twice a day if the weather is warm and dry. Once started they seem to have no trouble surviving winter even if they're only one inch seedlings. Last year it got down to below zero F., with no snow cover for insulation, and those babies didn't miss a beat.

This was the other side of that bed, picture taken from the center stone path.
