Four o'clocks moved from a planting at the lower house have spread in an unmannerly way. Aphids left my nasturtiums alone this summer--I think the plants were too wimpy to be appealing!Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7314065896417867122.post-12431023426230747662017-09-20T03:34:10.739-04:002017-09-20T03:34:10.739-04:00It's always nice to see what flourishes in the...It's always nice to see what flourishes in the gardens from year to year as the summer winds down. You have had some lovely successes. I hope your new fall plantings thrive for you - the recycled baby crib is a clever idea. I grew a whole border of nasturtiums one year and invited a huge colony of aphids to feast! The hummingbirds love them, though.
