Whiteflower navelwort - An elegant, airy annual.  Covered with petite, star shaped white flowers over silvery-green foliage.  Grown in masses in a shady area of the garden, the effect is beautiful.   Does well in pots and planters.  Will bloom until first hard frost.  Will self seed a bit in warmer zones.

Toss the seeds about where you want them to grow, they will.  I was surprised to see that they came up in a pot where seed had fallen from last year.  They survived my zone 2b winter. 

This is a short lived perennial that I pretty much let have its way.   Blooms in a mix of orange and yellow.  It's not overly aggressive in my garden, and easy to ID and pull out where not wanted. 

Annual Poppy mix

This is a mix of doubles and singles, mostly plum colours .  If you like poppies, and who doesn't, than you'll love this mix.

A gorgeous full petaled poppy that is a stunning brilliant red.  Not sure why I neglected to get a picture.

You'll have to trust me.

From short single petaled oranges & bronzes, to fully petaled creams.  Great for pots or directly in the garden. 

Marigolds are great for companion planting as their strong scent can help keep pests away.

I do love Marigolds.  They don't smell great but they sure do their part in keeping away some nasty critters.  Marigolds stand up to just about any weather, deer leave them alone, they keep blooming all summer... and they come in such bright vibrant colours. 

This one is from the solid yellow pictured.

Mexican Marigold or Signet Marigold

Lacy green foliage covered in small solid yellow blooms.  

This is an interesting little plant. Used in Chinese medicine and can also be used as a substitute for spinach (I eat it, makes a nice addition to a salad). Group many plants together in plantings, flowers bloom on airy stalks, they are small but are nice massed together, especially with the red bead-like buds and fruits. Bees love them.

I grow mine in a pot and bring it in for the winter.  I restarted my current plant when I moved here in 2015.  It doesn't skip a beat, growth does slow down some in my winter plant room, it stays green, blooming and happy as long as I water it once a month or so.  It's in a fairly large, deep pot.  

To date I have not noticed that my local critters eat it.  I've yet to see any bugs attack this plant, but I'm in zone 2b, may not be the same in higher zones?
