Normally, I would wait for a much wetter time to plant seedlings, but I had the time today so I moved ahead. The ground was very dry, so I watered the entire bed heavily after all the seedlings went in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is the list of what I remember planting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shasta Daisy\u2013about 11 of them\u2013a dwarf hybrid that I planted in groups of three to five around the garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oriental Poppy\u2013about 11 of these, too, which I planted in a drift in the center of the bed. These are the Fruit Punch hybrid poppies. I expect there to be some interesting colors in the batch since the mix includes plum, pink, coral and red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There were four unlabeled perennials that I\u2019m guessing are I planted about 9 lupines in the easternmost end of the garden where the lilies and tulips are planted. They are from the Tutti Frutti series from Pinetree seen HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There were two columbines that I planted on that were runts from the sowing I did over a year ago. There were three sedums that I planted along the curb, as well as 5 thyme seedlings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I planted a tree peony seedling that is about five years old. I\u2019m not sure how it will do in a hotter, drier spot, but I\u2019ve seen one that was in a similar position near my workplace. It blooms beautifully every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I had a weak plant from a mail-order nursery of Phlox paniculata \u201cLaura\u201d that got planted today, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Three seedlings of Chasmanthium latifolia were planted around a switchgrass that is just starting to grow and prosper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There are many chores around the garden and greenhouse that I need to tackle in the next few months. I decided to start by planting about 50 seedlings into the Memory Garden this morning. I spaced the seedlings around the entire garden in the areas that needed filling.

Erodium pelargoniflorum, \u2018Sweetheart\u2019. I planted them all together just back from the edgers on the street-side of the garden. You can see the flowers of this plant on Chiltern\u2019s site HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
