Velvet Blooming

Velvet Blooming
A goodbye to the love of my life?

Just because you can’t see me,
Doesn’t mean I’m not still near,
Cherishing our very last moments,
Wishing I could dry your tear.

Just because you can’t smell me,
Doesn’t mean I can’t send you gifts,
The roses still bloom all around you,
Through the air their perfume drifts.

Just because you can’t hear me,
Doesn’t mean that I won’t speak,
Sending you words of encouragement,
When you’re feeling defeated or weak.

Just because you can’t taste me,
Doesn’t mean I don’t want to kiss,
Your velvet, smooth, silky lips,
Which I ever so achingly miss.

Just because you can’t touch me,
Doesn’t mean you can’t carry on,
But sadly it does mean one thing,
I am sorry, my love, I am gone.

Losing a love is like digging your heart out with a spork.....

Salpiglossis - 10000 Seeds
USD 8.99
 
Salpiglossis sinuata, or commonly referred to as Painted Tongue, is a colorful and showy annual that prefers a position in full sun to partial shade. This variety, Velvet Dolly, produces bushy plants that reach about 16 inches in height. Covering the bush are blooms that are trumpet-shaped, velvety, and can come in different colors. It's highly unusual and lovely too! The blooms often have darker colored veins, painted throats, and a marbled look. The plant withstands high summer temperatures, so it's a good choice for areas of consistently high heat. In spring, start the seed indoors 4 - 6 weeks before the end of frost season, or directly outdoors after danger of frost has passed. Press the seed into the soil, do not cover it, and keep it moist. Given temperatures of 70 - 75F, germination is usually within 15 days. Space the plants 9 - 12 inches apart.
