Spring Freestyle

Lots of flowers reseeded themselves like the cosmos, bachelor buttons, marigolds, and petunias!
Wish you could smell the honeysuckle!

Canna getting ready to bloom as well as a dwarf sunflower that reseeded itself.
A scarlet runner been that reseeded! I was surprised to see it today!
I absolutely love the look of this dark red hollyhock and even more so surrounded by bachelor buttons that came back on their own!
There have been a few colors of bachelor buttons that weren't around last year I love when that happens! I like the pink and white combo.
This one is a dark purple although it's looking more blueish in photos.
My fave pink wave petunia that reseeded. In this pot is also a calabrachoa that wintered over(you have to look very closely to see the small light pink flowers), and a strawberry.
I loved the way this looked with the cannas starting to get big and the wave petunias growing in it, and then the marigolds growing into the petunias. Isn't that one of the prettiest marigolds? I love the leaves so lacy and the flowers are very small. There is a sea of these marigolds that reseeded!
My spot in the garden has a pretty red mandevilla blooming and my geraniums that haven't stopped all winter!
This is the veiw of the hollyhock and bachelor buttons from the swing.
I can also see these clematis flowers dangling from the swing...so cute! I love how the bud looks like a heart and when they open is the most cutest bell ever!
