Is there an eyesore in your neighborhood? Before these wildflowers sprang up next to a suburban train station, this slope was an dead expanse of grey traprock.
Wildflowers are easy to grow, especially if you select native flower varieties. In this photo you can see bright red poppies, blue cornflowers and yellow buttercups. As long as the flowers are not cut, they will make seed pods that will scatter seeds for next year. A wildflower garden is a easy, zero maintenance flower garden. And the perfect way to disguise that neighborhood eyesore.
Has someone beautified an eyesore in your neighborhood? Can you send me a photo? fpearson@mainstreetconnect.us.
