In Perspective, Fun: A look at small flowers in cultivated home gardens!

I am so impressed by the dedication folk how to tending small spaces packed with flowering plants, especially when they are low down and allowed to grow as they will!

The top ones are Forget-me-Not, Myosotis. They reseed and you can find them in the woods, in between cracks in your driveway, all over the place. They are cute and beautiful! Quite tiny.

The middle ones confused me for a bit, they look just like Morning Glories, but I didn't know there was a low growing ground variety, and yes, there is! So there you go. (Convolvulus Sabiatus - Yes, I looked up the Latin Name :-D)

and the bottom ones are Mexican Fleabane, Erigeron Karvinskianus (member of the Aster Family, hence the daisy-like appearance). Easy to grow,

All of these plants re-seed on their own, once planted will spread and are care-free.

You are the BESTEST Maggie!

Thanks so much. Did you do a reverse image search or what other detective work?

Hi Asher, The forget-me-nots grow around here even in my yard, and the Mexican fleabane looked like Asters so were not hard to find. As for the Morning Glory, they looked exactly like morning glories do, but was not expecting them to be so low to the ground, as I know them as vines that climb. So these were very easy to find with a bit of detective work. The myosotis, (forget-me-nots) no searching at all, I even remembered their real name.

Asher
