@bubbles and tx_flower-child,
it wasn't anything I did - just tossed out the alyssum seeds and they came up. This clump was left on its own with some watering throughout the summer and they did so well. Had another clump in another spot but it didn't do as well. Noticed babies coming up in that area so I'll have more of these lovelies. And they smell so, so good!
The angel trumpets and firespikes are toast but hopefully they will come back in spring. The turk's cap have some leaves left.
My Homestead verbena is surviving the cold, too; they look really good. But I did take cuttings just in case they didn't make it.
The paperwhites are popping up too
@pod. Some of the amaryllises and liliums are doing well.
We have sun today
, after a week of cloudy days, and a rainy night with 20 mi. winds.
