How about a little game of seed ID? I've numbered seeds from 1 to 9. Can you identify plants that will grow from these seeds? For fun, jot down your guesses and then scroll to find the answers:
 |
| No. 1 |
 |
| No. 2 |
 |
| No. 3 |
 |
| No. 4 |
 |
| No. 5 |
 |
| No. 6 |
 |
| No. 7 |
 |
| No. 8 |
 |
| No. 9 |
Now, check the accuracy of your guesses:
 |
| No. 1: Cosmos bipinnatus |
 |
| No. 2: Dahlia hybrids (framed by Asters in this photo) |
 |
| No. 3: Tithonia rotundifolia |
 |
| No. 4: Verbena hastata |
 |
| No. 5: Asclepias incarnata |
 |
| No. 6: Zinnia elegans |
 |
| No. 7: Lactuca sativa |
 |
| No. 8: Lalab purpureus |
 |
| No. 9: Alcea rosea |
How'd you do?
I admit: I had to be very careful to keep these seeds and photos organized. I'll be planting all of them, and others, this spring. What seeds will you start in the weeks ahead?
