Lemon Mint, Monarda citriodora...

The patient gardener waits.

Every year now I order hundreds of thousands of seeds from inexpensive wholesale sources and broadcast them far and wide knowing that some won't come up at all, some will flourish and my lush cottage gardens will be show-stopping, and some are mysteries, and may appear at any time. Two years after broadcasting the seeds the lemon mint is popping up everywhere and it is so beautiful it is more than worth the wait. I want to live at Nature's pace. I am happy to wait for the beauty and rejoice in it when it comes...
