The first nemophila


That's the variety "Five Spot." For obvious reasons. Quite a few of them opened this morning, while the other two varieties (Baby Blue Eyes and Penny Black) are not even budding yet.

One thing about nemophilas is they don't like heat. Most days they're all flat by one o'clock unless I water them in the morning. Today, because it's particularly hot, they were already wilting by 8:30 AM. But they bounce right back up when you water them, even if they've been flat for some time.
