I'm starting to look through the 2009 seed and plant catalogs now. Thanks for posting on your blog so regularly! It's one of the few I look at almost every day (ok, every day!). Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Barbara, I had to look back at this post to remember what the name of that flower was you were talking about.

There are many different varieties. You might look up something called 'Mexican hat' too. I don't know the botanical name. They are cool. Gaillardia is blanket flower.

You will love balsam, but it gets tall so plant the seeds behind your littler plants :) Hey Katherine, I’ll have to look up gaillardia, as the name sounds familiar but I can’t picture the plant.

I don't even really care how cold it is outside, and have been known to collect them in 30 degree, blowing snow weather! One of my favorites are the seeds out of one of those perennial seed packs. I like to scatter them around also. I also do marigolds, gaillardia, and any other little things I find! I really like that balsam too, and have never heard of it. I might just have to buy some!

I hope you do try it :) Valerie, good point, lol! When we were outside all afternoon when my kids were young, I knew when it was time to go in and start dinner: when the four o'clocks opened.

Upon hearing of their name my Father-in-Law inquired why they were called that, I explained that when they start blooming they open up at 4:00. One day he stopped by a little after 4 and asked why my 4 O'clocks were not blooming. I simply replied that they did not reccognize Daylight Savings Time, just as the cows did not.
