Thanks for your message. I hope you get some sun soon. :)<br /><br />Hi Christine, thanks for your message. There are plants that really seem to thumb their noses at us! So much worse when they'll grow for non gardeners.<br /><br />Hi Jennifer, thanks for stopping by and for the blogoversary wishes. I know the blue poppies can be quite finicky, I was just hoping they would be happy here.<br /><br />Hi Deborah, thanks for the wishes, I hope to have pics of blue poppies for you one day.<br /><br />Hi Noelle, it's true about plants/seeds. Sometimes, there's only so much we can do.<br /><br />Hi Beth, thanks for stopping by! I've seen pics of the pink obedient plant and it's beautiful.<br /><br />Hi Joy, I hear you about being behind in blogland! I'm not sure where the time is going but it's flying by these days. Once the kidlets are back in school things should return to 'norma;' or at least my version of it. I will pick a much easier plant for my next obsession, maybe something like a dandelion!

Hopefully yours will co-operate soon and favor you with flowers soon. At least there are lots of other pretty things in bloom in your garden make up for the lack of blue poppies.

My neighbor had a plant with about forty blossoms nearly five feet tall. Me? Mine are a squatty two feet. About 5 blooms in five years. I'm ready to rip them out!<br /><br />Hope you have better luck. <br /><br />Christine in AlaskaChristine B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08335289758548637661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671006236976973866.post-72166825983723262662010-08-16T17:31:36.352-07:002010-08-16T17:31:36.352-07:00A belated happy blogoversary!

I find that most of perennials have difficulty with seed germination, so I always rather buy a plant.
