Dear orange cosmo
I waited for you to bloom.
Is this a weed? WAIT!
Art Prescription: I planted Cosmo seeds a month or so ago. These were seeds that I gathered and saved from my neighbor’s end of the season garden last fall. Out of a bunch, one tall leafy plant did rise, but up until yesterday I wasn’t sure if it was indeed a Cosmo or a weed. Patience paid off. Now I have multiple orange blossoms blooming next to my purple cone flower. ASAP…I will go out and sketch them.

Just got home from a trip out of state… so nice to find this pretty, plump little chirper in my box. Happy flowers, berries and heart shaped leaves…… Ahhhh.
