So pretty! Wow, I wonder how that happened?

[janedavitt]

I'm really baffled; they're in next door's grass too.

Those are so beautiful! And you didn't do anything? And this is the first year? Um, a flock of really poopy, flower-eating birds flew over, maybe? That's so cool, though--lucky you. :)

I'm baffled! But happy :-)

Wow! That's gorgeous! I remember my mom having a box of candied violets to use for cake decorating. I used to sneak them straight out of the box. :D

ETA: OMG NOM! I wish I had your yardful, now.

Ooh! I have some soaking in vinegar to make a salad dressing; maybe I could try this too before they die back.
