Helping my memory

According to Native American seed, fall is the time for sowing wild flowers. I’ve done this for the last three years, and I never remember where I’ve sewn what in the meadow. Neat little plant markers don’t work so well when you have to mow it all down (after it has gone to seed, of course). So this year I took a picture of the meadow and marked up the photo on my phone. I took a picture of the seed packs too, as a key. We’ll see if this helps identify what does well! It might take a couple years. I had some plants come up two years after I spread the seed (I’m looking at you, standing cypress.) American basket flowers are my favorite, so they get an extra dose of chance.
