- The plants I ordered from Brent and Becky's Bulbs and White Oak Nursery arrived this week, so I was able to bring them with me and plant them.
- Planted 75 Moonlight Caladiums in the Shade Garden and along the Boardwalk.
- Planted 100 Oxalis tetraphylla 'Iron Cross' in the Shade Garden, along the Boardwalk, and in the shady part of the Star Garden. Oxalis are four leaf clovers. They are fun little plants to grow because they are - well, four leaf clovers! They multiply vigorously. I have another 100 to plant, but I gave out. I'll plant them next week.
- Planted 3 Francee Hostas in the Shade Garden.
- Planted 3 Abiqua Drinking Gourd Hostas in the shady part of the Star Garden.
- Planted 10 Mojito Colocasia Esculenta along the Boardwalk and in the Shade Garden.
- Moved an Autumn Sage that was growing in a crack in the rocks over to a bed in the Star Garden.
- One of the sprinkler zones is not working. We'll have to get someone out to take a look at it. Unfortunate.
- Dug up some of the Yukon Gold potatoes in the Vegetable Garden. They are so cute!
- Pulled up the last of the carrots.
- Made a salad for dinner Saturday night with baby arugula from the garden and lemon/anchovy dressing. Delicious.
- Fertilized in the Star Garden with some liquid fertilizer.
- Weeded the Vegetable Garden.
- Picked several big bouquets of Sweet Peas to bring home.
- Staked a holly hock that fell over.
- Spread Nicotiana seeds across a flower bed in the Infinity Garden. My Nicotiana is going to seed, so I pulled some of the seed pods off the plants and sprinkled them all around.
- Deadheaded roses in the Rose Garden.
