- B. was given a Hibiscus “Candy Wind” (Annual – 24-36 inches, likes sun to partial shade). Planted near the jackrbt hydrangea.
- Planted “Rostov Sunflower” (Helianthus annuus) seeds, along fence, in raised bed, and in one small pot (broken one from stoop). Says to stagger seeding to provide continual bloom. Should be 6 foot stalks.
- Spread poppy seed in bed along border where they were last year. Mahogany Red, mixed color, and california poppy (eschschozlia califonica – all have same name. )
- In Enzo’s former hole, under chives, spread “birds eye gilia (gilia tricolor), and farewell to spring (clakia amoena).
- In cement block, planted Cosmos “Sensation Blend” (cosmos bipinnatus), also put seeds in the small oval planter and in a pot. Yay Cosmos!
- And then the trip to the Gowanus, in which, as usual, I spent twice what I had intended. In two of the cement blocks, Candytuft, iberis sempervirens (Alexander’s White). Looks like Lantana. Supposedly perennial. Will need to be cut back after flowering.
- In shady bed, celandine poppy (Stylophorum diphyllum), supposedly 12-18:, yellow flower, will spread. Perennial
- Also in shady bead Sweet Woodruff (Galium oduratum), 4-8” groundcover. Also perennial.
- And in pots, I got a bunch of herbs: oregano, basil, sage, tarragon, spearmint, cilantro,
- Out front, in pot on stoop, an annual lantana “confetti”.
- In B.' pot on stoop, Nemesia “Impresario white”, and another Verbena, Lanai Burgundy. Should be good for heat.
- - In aluminum "windowbox" planter, Babylon light blue (Verbena hybrid), and a white osteospermum (Jamboana white). Actually got those last weekend at Grdn.
