August Ramblings




We are finally getting summer weather here in Upstate New York. The self-sown nicotianas are running rampant through parts of the garden. I used to grow different varieties from seed but now I let nature take its course and have ended up with a nice mix of colors. Green is the predominate color but there is also white,pinks, and few chocolates. There isn't a bad one in the whole lot. Nicotiana sylvestris also self sows usually between the stones in my terrace. Since it is so tall I usually leave just one to make a statement.
