Red Flowers!

I planted, way back when I first moved in here last fall, a bunch of red flowers in my first large raised bed.  I'd envisioned them blooming all along the border, but sadly they never sprouted.  I blamed it on trying to figure out how to mix the soil componets still and figuring out the right watering schedule or even dud seeds or birds grazing.  But they're coming up now!  I've forgotten their official names {I think the little orange-red cosmo is called a Diablo}, so I'm looking for their original packages to remind me.  Maybe they needed the heat to germinate, or who knows, but I'm happy they've decided to come around!
