I really love this picotee morning glory. Unusual leaves and well-behaved vines. (At least so far!)
Pity I can't seem to finds any seeds. If it stays so well-behaved, I'd like to invite it back to certain spots in the garden next year! (Photo color is true.)

| Sweet! I hope you eventually find some seeds...and offer them up here first if you have any extras...(wink, wink) Sue |

| Lovely! I tried to grow this twice...it never grew for me. It's a beauty. |

| This is the first year I got any sprouts. They got started in my neighbors planters with lots of sun and little water for part of the summer, then I ripped them up and planted them in my yard. Despite being relocated they've done really well. I've finally spotted a few seeds. I guess the true test of its behavior is how many volunteers I get next year! |

| I'll definitely start a bunch this spring. As I recall, they took forever to sprout -- so I may end up bringing the extra seeds to the swap. |

| A few other last minute beauties. I think these are the last roses of the year. The color is much darker in the cold weather.
One of the many volunteer malvas; Zebrina, I think. Also much darker in cold weather.
A very optimistic primrose:
And the first every bloom from my Nadezhda lilac. Wrong season, but a nice effort!
