I've had a fairly productive week. I've gotten over half of my garden chores done, and my work is almost finished (and not due till Tuesday!) In the last couple of days I've planted five bamboo-and-twine trellises with moonflowers and morning glories, planted a big tray of flax and a few pots of forget me nots, primroses, and dame's rocket, and divided some mints. My mom and I have also been gradually cleaning the shed...we have enough pots between us to start a greenhouse!
The foxgloves and forget me nots i started last summer have been absolutely beautiful this spring! I've never had foxgloves get that tall before. I hope I'll be able to start another batch this year. My hollyhocks seem kind of stunted, though. I wonder if I didn't give them enough compost when I planted them...
My biggest job left is the batch of cuttings I've been meaning to start all spring. I have everything ready for them, but I want to pick a good day when it's not too hot to do the actual cutting.
