I had to cr’eep into the neighbour’s garden to get a photo of a flower as I have nothing left, except for the same old flowers. At lest she has a couple that I do not have and this cosmea was still hanging around. Must plant some myself next year.

Fiction Writing
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

When ours go feral, they bloom only in simple pink or white, with single flowers. About half are pink, and about half are white. All the fancier colors sort of fade out after only a few generations. (It works just like nasturtiums reverting to simple orange and yellow.) Fortunately, the simple pink and simple white are delightful colors. I actually prefer the ferals to the fancy varieties. I just try to the fancy varieties because I get samples from the producers, and because I know it is good to try new things. Those that are ‘rose’ colored really are very pretty. (I believe that ‘rose’ is like a richly dark pink, but I am not proficient with color.)

I absolutely love cosmeas – and I bought several planted pots of them to put in my garden – ALL of them died on me – the largest one, a white one, which came at a ransom’s prize, was first to go – it must have been all that cold, awful rain and wind…. I’ll try again next year!

Lovely! Cosmos are a lovely flower and plant, with their feathery foliage! I feel pleased to find butterflies leaving eggs in mine, a lovely trade off for slightly less perfect plants.
