Warmer weather is back a upon us and it feels wonderful! Today the area was outlooked for severe weather again but nothing particularly extraordinary happened here. A bit humid today and the cold front scheduled to go through will diminish the humidity but the temps will remain in the 80's.
Been a few days since I posted here. Planted a few things since the last entry. Today made another trip to Lowe's and purchased many pots of various sizes along with a few more hooks for the wall near the deck and bags of red cedar mulch and compost/manure. On a previous trip to Lowe's they had 40 lb. bags of cow manure for only slightly more than $2 but today there was no such product. I guess they sold out.
So a few things we got done the last several days:
There in the middle you can see the bridal veil hanging basket and on either side the new hooks that were installed on Sunday.
In this vase was planted crook neck squash. The seed packaging states the plant is ideal for containers so let's see. Have to cover it and most anything else that gets freshly planted due to squirrels who enjoy digging up anything and everything.
Transplanted a small pot of Georgia Blue Speedwell into this pink container. Added mulch as directed.
Also filled up a second urn with Gladiolus tubers. Planted a couple varieties of pepperoncini in another container. I really want to fill up every last space in the yard with edible plants and shade-loving plants.
There is plenty of yard work to do tomorrow. Will update accordingly.
