I love flowers! I have always wanted to have a beautiful English garden full of flowers but I don't have a green thumb. In fact I don't have any kind of shade of green thumb. I have tried on occasion to have growing things around but something always goes wrong. So, imagine my surprise when I discovered we had 4 sunflowers growing in our backyard. I was so excited! Doodlebug and I have been watering them and just having a blast at learning all about sunflowers. There is even a national association of sunflowers online that we have been checking out and reading the history of the sunflower. What has transpired is these sunflowers have inspired me to go ahead and have my garden, but instead of an English garden I'm going to work on a butterfly garden! I have chosen a place in our backyard and I'm going to slowly but surely get a garden growing! I will post updates as I move through this new venture!
For now enjoy some pictures of my inspiration! :-)

here is a good tip for you: plant native plants, that way you do not have to do much "fancy" nuturing.
