Planting and Edging and Working Hard

Wrote and photographed this last Thursday, before the beautiful holiday weekend. Can’t fully edit on my iPad, but don’t have time to get to the computer to finish. Will do soon, in what looks to be a rainy week, but for now here it is.

Bill is working hard doing the edging on all of the beds. Whew!  I’m planting and weeding, and searching for important emerging plants.

This has been a growth week for sure. Hard to remember all we’ve done. Trying to get everything out of the greenhouse and planted. Weather looks so so, it doesn’t look like the lows will be below 50, but the highs are still 60s, maybe a 70 here or there. Here are this week’s pictures.

Purple coneflowers coming on. 

Want this empty and gone this weekend. It is!  

A lot to plant this weekend

Beautiful red Darwin tulips. 

View from the deck.  Rabbits are making stuff
difficult along this corridor. 

The Water Lilies are coming on strong.  And
the fish are spawning.  Spring peepers sing in
the evening.

Shooting Star!  love it for a short moment.

A yellow violet.  I think it is Viola pubescens

My favorite purple tulips, growing in front of
the garden for many years.  

Can hardly keep up with the asparagus.  Love it!

working on identification.
