New Additions





Of course I had to go to Groff's, the trusty and local nursery, for a few more plants last weekend. Some new additions in my garden are a few basil plants with the name of 'Purple Ruffles', which is self explanatory. I bought Ricinus, also known as a Castor Bean, and Physocarpus opulifolius 'Diabolo', filling out a nearly empty corner of my stone wall. A new Gaillardia aristata 'Galo Red' was put in where another Gaillardia had kicked the bucket and a Ratibida grandiflora 'Red Sundance' was installed, both of which are featured in my photos. I also planted a few things I had started in the greenhouse, namely Ipomea lobata and Crocosmia 'Meteore'. The weather has been really fabulous with sun and clear skies.
