Rain a rolling in…

to Southern California and around these parched parts that’s an e-vent.

In fact, it may be too late to say to get your seeds that you can sprinkle right on top of the soil sprinkled real quick-like. That would be California poppy (I like the white ones), lettuce and mescluns, carrot, ageratum, hollyhock, clarkia, impatiens (do you say em-pat-tee-ins?), lobelia, alyssum, Shirley and other poppies, salvia, verbena, yarrow, columbine, campanula, geranium, lychnis, Oriental poppy and any wildflower mix that you bought in the spring.

Do not cover these seeds with soil - in fact all of the seeds on the list need a tad of daylight to germinate. Rainy weather is the easiest way to keep them moist until they’re up.
