Love in the Mist  
Nigella damascena
Love-in-a-Mist is a hardy annual belonging to the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae) with very fine, threadlike foliage and charming 1.5-inch flowers at the end of each branch. An excellent cut flower it also forms interesting horned seed capsules, which are beautiful in dried arrangements. Comes into bloom very quickly. Make successive sowings to ensure a continuous supply. Where winters are mild it can be sown in the fall for very early spring bloom the following year. Grows to 1.5-feet tall.
Seeds from Blair Farmer's Market 2004. Planted spring 2005.

Red Coreopsis
Coreopsis
Plants form a bushy mound of ferny green foliage, bearing masses of daises that are a true ruby-red shade, with a tiny yellow eye. Prefers average to moist soil and a sunny location. Best treated as an annual in all but the mildest winter regions. Excellent for edging the border, but especially superb in tubs or mixed containers. Tolerates heat and humidity. Attractive to butterflies.
From Julie in 2005 West Bed.
