Day Fourteen - Accidental Florals


By my reckoning, this was our third gardening season here at the house and we've had a real spate this year of Flowers We Didn't Plant! It stands to reason that bulbs will lie dormant for awhile and then spring up where no flowers were before, so that explains the narcissus and gladioli, but this year we also got some odd things like petunias, pansies, and poppies where none have been for the past two years. So in a really lush year, the garden's color-scheme was interspersed with rogue flowers, adding a delightful bit of randomness to my plantings!
