We had the vegetable garden rabbit proofed, so we thought, but there was a bunny in there awhile, eating some of my pole bean plants. It must have gotten in between the compost and chain link. I moved some of the compost, and we added chicken wire to that area. We almost had it caught one day. I had it between the chain link and the chicken wire, but it got free. We haven't seen it since, and the beans that were left are doing pretty well. <br /><br />You could still have some seeds come up. Wildflowers sometimes take more than one season to come up, because they need to go through a winter first.<br />Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179508710493309984.post-48757227243876159262016-07-31T16:18:36.188-06:002016-07-31T16:18:36.188-06:00Did you plant the seeds right side up, Cathy?

Perhaps the mice and voles will enjoy the flowers down there a foot or so below the topsoil. <br /><br />Have you thought about reading as a hobby? Go to the library, choose a couple of books, check them out, bring them home, read. When finished reading them all, repeat. ;-) Art Elserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02381522167763513798noreply@blogger.com
