66º shower temp dropped to 56º
Jim Carpenter filled large flower pots with peat moss (from Dave Matyak) and potting soil & I poptted up 4 combinations – when rain started went to poitting bench in garage & potted the seedling tomatoes. Way toop many!
He downloaded his pix from Garden Tour & I forwarded to the family. Left at 1:30. I coiled the hoses used to water the new grass.
The Ohio Scerrian had article about the negative impact of bottle water on the environment. One of my pet peeves. Emailed to family and to Gale, Jim Carpenter & Karen Kelly. Dave Decker responded – He doesn’t use it.
Cleaned the dead leaves from the staphylia – has 6 spathes. Cut on to take to Garden Club of Marion. Jim had cut for me – Mertensia, leucojeume, ajuga, Ostrich fern. I was one of 4 on discussion panel. Ken Lehner on orchids, Paul Klinefelter on roses and met Bob O’—, new Extension Agent for Ohio State. Nice chat with him. He has a Prius and had been wanting to meet me. Home by 10:00.
