Garden Notes

So I was in one of my forums and someone mentioned the end of season dahlia sale at Longwood Garden. I was bad. That’s 18 tubers above. I did give two to the my mother, but the rest are now in pots.

The big pots above are the dahlias. I also moved most of the seedlings out to harden off.

The hoop is up against the south side of the house, and I may need to rethink that. It’s been really warm for the past week (to the point where I didn’t cover them the past two nights), and there’s really no shade in this location. I may move them under the lilac instead – that’ll give them more shade. But we’ll see how this season goes.
