Partly Sunny 16°C / 60°FWent to the Skagit Valley Tulip festival, field after field of tulips! Some daffodils, too, but they were mostly finished and the iris have not started yet. Of course, I ordered a bunch of bulbs for next year. These bouquets will be mine!

I bought a package of blue pumpkin seeds to send to my nephews as a fun thing to grow. I snitched a few so I could have fun, too! But now that they’ve sprouted, I don’t have a clue what to do! I’m a flower gardener. Any advice appreciated.Cloudy 21°C / 69°F
