A Day at the Farm 03/25/10

This is a bud of Homestead Purple Verbena. Very pretty!
  • I finished laying down crushed granite around the Greenhouse.
  • I made a lot of progress laying down crushed granite in the Star Garden.
  • I planted a flat of Ruby Grass (Melinis nerviglume) in the Wave Garden. This is the garden I am dedicating to my son Max. Ruby Grass gets about 2 feet tall. It flowers rosy pink seed heads in the summer. I'm short 3 plants. I will have to go back and buy some more.

This is a young Ruby Grass plant. The foliage is blue-greyand will turn golden in the fall. It will get about a foot wide and two feet tall.
