High noon & in for a ‘cool off’ break. I picked up a yard of topsoil this morning (one of the major benefits of having the cap off the pickup bed!!!) & I have about half of the load shoveled off. The bed is in full sun, it’s 80 degrees & hot.
Looked around at the garden center before ordering the topsoil & spotted lavender plants that were not there last time I looked, a week or so ago. They had a Super Blue, which is what we wanted for the side if the house & could not find. I bought one, so now I have 2 lavenders for the new bed. I was told they had just come in from the farm, so they will go like hotcakes.
Another flower that deer do not eat is foxglove. I want one. No kids or pets to get into the plant. They self seed & are beautiful ... will go in near the hollyhocks (a few hollyhocks did come up from seed).
Laptop is being a stinker so on my phone & cannot post pics - will try to post some of the new raised bed later.
Dirt is ‘done’ .... so am I, LOL! Truck empty, raised bed full to the brim. Working on quart #2 of electrolytes.
