Nice close up of an Echinacea. When starting from seeds if you want it too much, it won't even germinate, best to rely on volunteers. Our best tomatoes are from volunteers that sprang from a random abandoned pot of old compost.

Jayne: I'm famous for pulling good things out in the spring when it's too early to recognize them as something other than weeds.
Mary: But... I'm sure he thought he was being extra helpful!
