Our wildflower class went off at the end of last month. It was the most flowers I think we've ever had - I'm going to try to list them all just for kicks...

garden roses from California, nigella, scabiosa pods, asclepias, dinner plate dahlias, standard dahlias (is there such a thing?! NO), amaranthus, bronze upright, russian olive, crabapple, black scabiosa, celosia, decorative oregano, hydrangea, thistle, cosmos, echinacea, jasmine, yarrow, lambs ear, nigella pods, purple basil...

And the New York Times came and made a story about flower classes that ran last Thursday. If you didn't see it you can here.*

Snack time included some amazing grapes from Nicolette's courtyard..

And some of the portraits...

* Russell was reading the Times online Wednesday night when the story went up. You know how they rotate the A1 lead story every hour or so?...when he logged on there we were front and center - so surreal! He grabbed this screenshot for me:
