First Bloom

Amid the aging, giant nasturtium leaves in my front yard there is a new bloom, the first of the season. Since the nasturtium is a drought tolerant plant once established, this showy flower may be mainstay of landscaping this year in parts of California. I harvested hundreds of seeds last year and plan to sow many of them tomorrow. Doesn’t get more exciting that this…oh, yes it does, thankfully.
