Drove by Rutledge Farm where the corn maze is and they say they are planting this year's corn maze next week. So I'd think they'd know when is the best time!
I bet we won't get frost now.... I'd go for it.
We got the stuff here at Ace on 93rd. They didn't have a LOT of flower choices. No impatiens for the shady pots by my porch, but I was able to get some red and white geraniums, petunias, and blue Lobelia. for the whiskey barrel and the hanging pot.
I'm thinking of going to Home Depot to look for hanging stuff...but there it's easy to get dazzled by choices. ;-) On the other hand, I could ask how much it costs to rent a rototiller. Maybe worth the trip.
Geraniums can take sun and heat, no? Whatever I put down there will be vey exposed.
If I do go to Home Depot, want me to check for impatiens? I got some for in back, so they do carry 'em. Mine weren't great, but it was the middle of the week when I picked them up. I imagine the selection is better on weekends.
