Sacrificial Flowers!

Living in northern Nevada for many years, the urge to plant flowers and vegetable seedlings always preceded common sense as we knew that late frosts happened and most likely they would have to be replaced. These were called our "sacrificial flowers", worth the losing to see their beauty for however many days they were with us. The flowers I planted a few warm days ago were covered by a snowflakes today, their spectacular color nestled in a bed of white. They have survived so far. They may survive tomorrow. Or maybe not. I cherish their glorious burst of color today. Seize the moment! Even if it is just involves a few struggling pansies. sf
