@Marilyn, here are a few pics of the larkspur, taken this year (top) and in 2011. Still have both violets in the garden, but nixed the pink.
And here's the full pic of the banner. The brown leaves are poppies which have gone to seed. Need to save them for the finches! (You can see the one poppy stem bent over from the weight of the finch landing on it.)
Thank you
@EscondidoCal,
@IrisLilli,
@slowcala and
@vic for the thumbs up!
