Church Flowers
As we pasted the craft paper to the sides of the milk carton I knew my mother would love the hand made craft of propagated Marigold seeds. They were petite yellow French marigolds, as I would discover some time later in life. These small flowers quickly outgrew the carton and my mother planted them outside by the sidewalk. They died out and created seed pods which my mother took and planted the next season. Mom has gone on now and I have been to her grave site, out of state, and planted marigolds right there. Planting flowers has since become a hobby and a great love of mine. I grow 50 to 200 individual plants on my front porch every year and even more in my yard. I grow everything from daisies to roses to lilies. I have grown Foxglove, columbine, lambs ear, crown of thorns, cactus, and various succulents just to name a few.
