My darling 2 year old is loving gardening at the moment. She loves
watering plants and watching them grow. (She also loved pulling up the
tomato plants we had planted together and running around the garden
with them...)

She also loves flowers. Picking them that is.

I thought the best plant for her would be something which grows fast,
and has lots of tiny flowers. Preferably in a pot.

Being a bit of a useless gardener, does anyone have a suggestion?

Mine grows sweet peas, she did them from seed. She's 6 though. Maybe more
patient. And sweet peas *need* picking. You can also use the Tomorite that
you were going to use on your tomatoes, sweet peas like it.
