Tequila Sunrise, Lily-of-the-Valley, Liatris Spicata


Quickly threw some Renee's Garden Heirloom California Poppies, Tequila Sunrise (packed for 2016) seeds on the ground yesterday and potted up some Lily-of-the-Valley and Liatris Spicata bareroot plants from Walmart today.

Hopefully the poppies will take, even though they were packed last year. Supposedly  they will take about 7-14 days to germinate, so by April 14th, I should see some signs of life if they are going to do their thing.

Planning on adding some snowdrops around the hellebore in the fall. It was an idea I got from this Garden Design article about hellebores with comments by Jerry Fritz of Linden Hill Gardens. I should probably add more hellebores too!
