Did little work outside today. HAD to clean house!!! Did cover potted dahlias on deck as it is supposed to rain yet again. Also checked the rest to see what I might sell. Beds are ready in #3 for them and will put them in front and south corner.
Planted the three pineapple mints in garden #1. I like the variegated foliage. Lightens everything up. Finally did get right posts for black gate - put them in. Looks good. Now have to finish perimeter fencing. Tucked the Guacamole hosta in right circular bed in #1. Split it so had two - looks good.
Ordered $50 worth of perennials from Bluestone on line. Digitalis obscura, Mum Mary Stoker, asst. Gloriosa daisies and the rudbeckia I liked so much last year "Prairie Sun". Man, I must have already spent close to $1000 on garden stuff this year, especially if I include Matt's labor.
Luckily, requests for lectures are coming in. Three for Sept. so far.
