Wild!
Three years, a lot of hard work, and $200 worth of seeds gets you a quarter acre of countless blooms. Tammy (pictured) and Mike Bradshaw have developed an eyecatching display in front of their home in the country midway between Ada and Bluffton. In late June the wildflower meadow garden bursts into yellow. Soon, other colors will emerge. You'll find bachelor buttons, daisies, and more. To drive past to see the flower display from Ada, take County Line Road north, cross Old US 30, it's in the next mile on the left. From Bluffton, take County Line Road south a few miles; the summer garden is on the right. (Monty Siekerman photo)
