I was astounded and impressed by the preparation that went into the post. Scanning old photos, even being able to find the old photos to describe your random things is awe inspiring, as was everything you told us about yourself. It sounds like you have lived a happy life, love motherhood, yes Frances,https://www.blogger.com/profile/03616568389165362993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30483234.post-59807634568096129102008-07-23T17:06:00.000-05:002008-07-23T17:06:00.000-05:00I'm sorry to hear about the milkweed, but I bet yo...I'm sorry to hear about the milkweed, but I bet your theory is correct. They may do better if you plant some this fall, I think they need a cold period to germinate. (Or put some in the fridge) The trollius is a moisture-lover, but a boggy area or creekside would do. Let me know if you need more milkweed seeds. :)lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18133943147518051559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30483234.post-44204672259111100202008-07-23T13:08:00.000-05:002008-07-23T13:08:00.000-05:00I love milkweed too!
