Over the last couple weeks I've had to accept it. My butterfly garden that I blogged about a few weeks ago is simply not growing! I ordered the seeds from a MONARCH BUTTERFLY CONSERVANCY PROJECT, set the seeds out in new soil and in my window and watered them carefully but just a couple of them took. I carefully planted those seeds out of doors a couple weeks later, and I even put the ones that hadn't sprouted in soil outdoors as well. I thought if the watering or light or heat was wrong in the house they would have a second chance, but no.
I GUESS I GOT SOME DUD SEEDS!
What now?
One day when I was walking down the street I came across some marigolds that had gone to seed, pulled some of the dry buds, and planted some of those. THEY SPROUTED RIGHT UP!
So right now I have six giant marigolds that are growing.
All the tiny seeds that immediately sprouted indoors died once transplanted!
What happened to my "GREEN THUMB?"
or did I do everything right in the wrong weather?
