What did I spy while walking by my garden bed this afternoon? My first flower of the season!
:)This would be a Verbena. (Look, Mom, I know what it is!) lol
It's supposed to be a trailing variety. I have it planted in a corner of my first garden bed. The idea is that it should drape down the side. It didn't do that last year, but looks more promising this year.
I plant flowers in the midst of my vegetables in hopes of making it look more attractive to bees and other helpful bugs. Plus, they're just pretty.
