Today is February 1st and we made a very appropriate discovery. While playing outside, Bella found that our Hollyhocks (that we planted last spring from seed,) got their first bloom!!! I cannot express how exciting this was. When we planted these, we thought they would bloom in a couple months--not almost a year later! All year long we have watched these plants slowly grow. To finally see a bloom was really exciting and a long time coming. (unlike sunflowers, for example!) So does this mean Spring is coming soon? Who knows? After all, we are in sunny So. California!
