The zinnias and lupine and hyacinth beans were ready to be transplanted into larger pots today. I stopped by Menards to pick up some transplant cells and couldn't resist coming home with 2 of the (49 cents after rebate) roses. I have no idea how they will do and truthfully am not even sure where I want to plant them. Perhaps one in the herb garden that I'm planning around the patio or on the side of the house near the AC since that is the south end and gets a lot of sun all day. I also picked up some orange tulips and purple hyacinths to plant in the walkway island since I apparently forgot to plant bulbs in that island last fall and it looks really bare now!
I seeded up a bunch more seeds:
18 cells of Swiss Chard
3 cells Brandywine tomato
3 cells of English Thyme
3 cells of tall zinnia seeds (collected...don't know what variety)
3 cells of Malva
3 cells of mystery seeds from a pod I collected somewhere
3 cells of mystery seeds from my mom's yard. I recall they're purple, but I have no idea what they are.
In addition, the cells that didn't germinate were reseeded and 2 of the snake gourds have reared their huge heads through the soil.
Soon I'll post some pics...I can't find the back-up camera (my original camera fell in the Pacific when we want to visit the tide pools in CA). ;)
