Here's another breath of spring-- a nice clump of Adenophora. I think it's a native here,may have come from a wild wooded area near a stream that runs through the back of the property. Or someone at some point in years past may have brought it in. I do try to weed around it, but have no idea where the roots could be with all the other stuff so close!

Is C pyramidalis a biennial? Or a short- lived perennial? Does it self sow? Should I be planning ahead to replenish it, or can I trust that if it's happy it will perpetuate itself?

One more of the original Lupine seeds sprouted, just when I was giving up on them. All the sprouted Asclepias have emerged, 11 total, the remaining seeds doing nothing.

Also there are a few tiny radicals on Platy Astra Blue, so I planted them all, several seeds to a cell, 12 cells. The 2nd batch of the pink double are not sprouting, but the seeds are cracked open. I decided to plant them just in case there's something in there willing to grow.

I put the Aquilegia back in the freezer for a 2nd round. That's all for now...
