With little knowledge, I'm slowly turning an acre field into a garden! This is my first gardening attempt, so there's such a lot to learn! 🐝🦋🌻

Enjoying these weird flowers as they open and rattle! Lovely petal formations.

@gjones have you come across these before? Very odd flowers ass they feel like dried flowers an rattle when you touch them. Staw flowers is a good name actually. Hope you are both well.
