LIFE IS LIKE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES

Life IS like a box of chocolates -you never know what you are going to get. I had a tree to die in my back garden and got the idea to plant old fashioned morning glories on it before cutting it down this fall. I bought a cheap pack of morning glories at the dollar store and planted them. The picture on the package was solid blue. I also planted white moonflowers too. I thought the mix would be pretty. Well this is how the blue morning glories turned out-well some of them....
This is another bloom on the same plant. This one looks like old soft brushed denim fabric. I sure hope these make seeds-but then who knows what those seeds might do.
  Had to share this one with a bees butt sticking out of the bloom. Ha! This is a life lesson here-things don't always turn out like you want or expect, but that does not mean that it is not going to be wonderful. Joining http://www.anoregoncottage.com for the Tuesday Garden Party.

  2. I'm sure the bees are very appreciative of your beautiful flowers! The photos are so clear it's almost as if I could reach out and feel the delicate blooms. They're all beautiful. -- Jan
