RE: My garden in spring: fresh growth and blooming trees

I like your crabapple tree. Do you eat them? I've never heard of oxeye, but I love perennial plants. I have low germination with pepper seeds, too. Sometimes I just give up entirely. The pitcher plant was what really caught my attention! You have to post more pictures later when they grow! Do you fill them with water? In the wild, small animals use them as toilets.
Every week when I went shopping, I used to buy a small flower mix like yours and scatter them. Now, it sustains itself. From experience, you'll need more than one packet but, yes, it does look like that.

No, the 'apples' are tiny; the size of cherries and as far as I know not edible.
Too bad, because there are loads of them 😂

The pitcher plant is really cool. I received it from my daughters two years ago for my birthday. My wife doesn't like the plant, so they hang in my office now. They get a lot of sun there, what they really like. I don't fill the pitchers. The plant does this by itself. I do spray the plants a couple of times a week since they love humidity.
Here's a picture of one of the pitchers from last year:

It's just a pokemon, no?

It was a 25 m2 package and the plot is about 10 m2 I think. But I could buy another package.

Ah yes, the Pokemon that would always swallow James! I remember! I like the little version better, before it evolved.

I don't know how much but the plot I planted is much smaller, I assure you. It's only a modest circle around a rotting tree stump, which I'm sure they love feeding off of. I must have bought 5 or 6 of the small packets but I also wanted it to be varried and got a different mix every time. Pollinator mix, wildflower mix, perennial mix. You probably won't need that much because now I remember some of the packets I picked out were of individual flowers like cosmos.
