How lovely! I've gotten pretty good at growing vegetables, but flowers, not so much.
I wish I'd had more success growing veggies, it's hard on a tight budget with no car. I'm sure it would go better if I could enrich the soil. Oh well, bulb flowers grow like crazy!
It's definitely a learning curve to start your plants from seed, but seeds can be gotten cheap and are easy to transport. I find beans/peas to be pretty easy to grow from seed, and their vertical growth means they don't take up too much space.
