Yesterday, I made a little shade bed and planted the Dutchman’s Breeches and Squirrel Corn. This morning, I put the dwarf larkspur in with them.

Then, I put the cranesbill (wild geranium) in the “blank” spot I had left the last time I was flower farmin’.

I forked/raked back the straw and leaves to see whether the plants I’d put out had survived the cold. At least most of the wild phlox did.

This one was out of the ground, but I don’t know whether the ground heaved or I raked it out. I put it back; hopefully it’ll forgive me.

I believe these are both Virginia Bluebell.

Blurry because this giant compost worm didn’t want to stay still. Fat worm. Looked a bit jittery from the coffee grounds.

Surprise lilies were under a thick cover of leaves, but they just pushed the leaves up. They’ll green up once they get some sun.

I enlarged the morning glory bed to make room for wild bergamot. I hope I won’t regret that decision.

Got rid of the cups after I had a picture of what’s in the shade bed, or more importantly, where it is.

I left the straw and leaves in case it gets cold again and they need a blankie.

Now, I’d best get at the laundry–I’m LATE!!

EDIT: I also spray-painted my towel bar by the sink to match the mirror, and got the paint for my bathroom. May take pictures later…got too much to do right now.
Towel bar

I brushed a little paint on the wall last night; both to see the colour and so I’d be more “inspired” to get it painted.

AND, when I was supposed to be finishing the laundry, I was actually weeding the milkweed bed. No signs of life yet; I hope it survived!

P.S. I also saw 2015’s first flutter-guy. Either A question mark or a comma; I startled it when I walked up to the garage. It had been basking on the ground, and flew away, so no species ID.
