I planted a wildflower mix in a big bed in my front yard this spring and am getting surprises every day.
Those are gorgeous, Dwight ! I have tried planting wild flowers before, and never had any kind of luck with them ever coming up afterwards, and I am glad that you have so many different beautiful flowers ! I have lilies and Rose of Sharon blooming, but they come back each year.
Lilies are one of my favorites - so many different kinds. I've been looking in online guides to see what I have blooming. The big red one is a Corn Poppy, which are coming up in several colors. I'm still trying to find the others. It's a lot of fun growing things. I have some veggies coming along too.
Wild grass is my problem. Wild grass mixed in among the wild flowers. That and I have water standing in my back yard in a low spot, water from all the rains. In the last four days we've had over five inches of rain. But some areas have had ten to twelve inches so there's a four or five county flood warning.
I have a perennial garden in the front of the house and am currently planting perennials in the back. Most often, given our short growing season, I don't see anything in the way of flowers from any seeds that I plant that same year, and when they do come up, a year or two later, I never know for sure whether it was from the seeds that I had scattered or just another attractive weed.
I have to weed out grass every day too. It's tedious. It was hard work removing al the grass roots to get the bed and I didn't get them all. My grass comes from both root and seed. The grass from seed is easy to pull but the grass from roots makes you work for it. I don't know what the solution would be except to remove 3 or 4 inches of soil and start over with store-bought potting soil. I really know little about gardening. The pic is still another new guy. It's hard to get some of the smaller blossoms in focus.
Those little green plants (just to the right side of your flower) that look like a 3-leaf clover, but made with hearts, are wood sorrel, I believe, @John Ward . We have some here, and they have a little bit of a sour taste, and are fun to nibble on. They are a wild forgeable plant. Try one ! https://www.wildedible.com/wild-food-guide/wood-sorrel
I will certainly try the wood sorrel as soon as the rain stops here. We're having a hellacious thunderstorm. The storms are supposed to be on and off through Sat night. My corn poppies are still blooming like crazy. Do you capitalize flower names? Is it Rose or rose? I know even less about what flowers I have but it doesn't bother me to not know the names of the plants. They look just as good when I don't know what they are as when I do. Also, I don't cull when I've got too many going. It makes me feel like I'm playing God or something. ...and yes, I know that sounds stoopid.
