Remember my pot ghetto? It has been drastically reduced and the plants are now residing in the ground. It is nice to see scapes about to bloom in the garden even if they are blooming on southern time. I do have scapes on three different spufs but not on any bagels. I'm glad I have the spuf's or I would still be scapeless!
I placed the daylilies in their locations while my hubby asked stupid questions like - why couldn't he put the purple flower next to one that had a purple eye? Why couldn't he put the two pinks next to each other? How do you explain "clash" to a man?
The new woodland garden has finally been planted. It took me two hours to "design" it and to get the arrangement to my liking. While my hubby waited to help with the planting, he actually dug in a border around another small bed. Have I even mentioned how slow I am?
When it was time to plant, he took one side and I took the other. When he finished his side, he helped me finish planting my side. Have I mentioned how slow I am?
After getting all those in the ground, I fertilized and put out slug bait, just in time for a big storm to roll through. We had 50 mph winds, small hail and lots of rain. I really expected to find half the plants destroyed/ out of the ground etc. but everything came through fine except for one new hosta that is extremely tall. My new LET LOOSE, which has exceptionally tall scapes and lots of buds also survived intact.
Does anyone else have Scotch Brooms in their gardens. I love this plant/shrub/tree whatever it is. It gives lots of color in the spring to keep you appeased until the daylilies start blooming. {{gwi:632468}}
The color is off in the picture, the blooms are really a dark two toned pink and the clematis is The President, which is a dark purple, not a medium purple. Forgive the crappy edging on the daylily bed next to the Broom, hubby is still in the process of putting the pavers in place. He would have it done if I would quit making him plant the ghetto pots!
