Well I miscounted and am off by 1 day. This is after Day 41. But since I missed one day while traveling to Bisbee, AZ, I guess this really is after Day 40. I've been working on the Spiderwort flowers since my last post. They are one of my favorite plants in my garden. The foliage is a bright lime green and the velvety purple petals are strikingly beautiful against the green. Mark made me a flower press last summer and as I was doing my fall garden clean up, there were a few last blooms of the season that I grabbed and put in the press. The turned out like stained glass. I just pulled the pressed flowers out and I can see I have a little work to do on the petals. But overall, not bad.
