One of the things I got done this Saturday was planting the stuff from swapping that had come in during the week while I was out of town. I got some Monarda Purple Bea Balm in on the side of the pergola by the chives. I didn’t actually need more bea balm, but since I

Finally, a day when it’s not actually raining. Well, not very hard, anyway. There was light drizzle on and off and the sun didn’t actually come out, but we got quite a bit done out there today. The town had their annual plant swap in the morning. I took down some obedient plant, a couple

It was a memorable Memorial Day weekend, if only because it was so nice. I stayed outside on Saturday as much as physically possible, considering we went to the town plant swap, where I did great. I got tons of stuff that will grow here, yay, and had time to get it all in. We’re panicking a bit because there’s still so much to do before the garden tour. I’m making a list of stuff that must be done, and we are slowing working our way down it. It mostly involves weeding, spreading mulch, dividing and transplanting, but all on an abbreviated schedule because of the hard limit of the garden tour itself. It doesn’t sound like much, but when I’m out there looking at what’s left to be done, it can be a bit overwhelming.
