Yesterday we picked up a big box of plants from Mom and Dad. Today I've started putting them out, starting with a pair of pawpaw trees.
The weather is warm and cloudy. It rained a little yesterday. I've been seeing bumblebees around.
EDIT 4/17/17: Round 2, I planted a Moench purple aster and an Azure Fairy daisy in the wildflower garden.
EDIT 4/17/17: Round 3, I planted a mock orange in the forest garden and a ninebark in the hedge along the west edge of the savanna. I also covered today's plantings with milk jugs and watered them. I still need to mulch them, though.
Another wildflower is blooming in the forest garden, with a pendant yellow flower. I think it's a largeflower bellflower. I also found a black parrot tulip blooming in the garden beside the parking lot.
EDIT 4/17/17: Round 4, I planted the heather by the barrel garden and the red feather clover in the wildflower garden, and put milk jugs over both.
