Dave I think the flowers Karrie is talking about are the ones on the border on the right side the different shades of pink ones. I think they are looking at those and not the johnny jump ups.

Dave, isn't Wild Seed farm an awsome place to visit?
We visited there 2 yrs. ago in the fall, most summer plants were done blooming, but still a lot to see and enjoy.
Their garden shop is a very nice place to purchase gifts also.

Yes, it's definitely worth visiting; the gift shop is great and I love seeing their fields.
