I went plant shopping today. I still plan to grow a ton of flowers from seed, flowers that will hopefully bloom later this summer. But the full flower moon -- and the last likely date for frost at night -- is next week and I just didn't want to wait. What can I say? I'm weak. Purchased: So many plants and I wrote a blog post about it here. But to recap, I picked up: * basil * rosemary * thyme * catmint * parsley * red peppers * lavender * shasta daisies * babies breath * night sky petunias * raspberries * blueberries * white geraniums * peonies Alas, I couldn't find any good looking red geraniums nor any chocolate mint. Boo! Water: Once I returned home, M and I unloaded all of my new treasures from the car and put them on the back deck. Then I watered everything that looked/felt dry. Weather: Low 64/High 86 degrees, fair, 35% humidity, 3 mph wind, 0% chance of rain. UV index 6 of 10. Barometric pressure 30.364 falling. Moon phase: Waxing gibbous.
