Well Sweep Events
Saturday yet??
Looking forward to this, huh?
ya think???
I'm not going to be able to make it :( please post about it. Have a fun time :)
Onewish, I have that penstemon for you too. Maybe if you go to a MidAtlantic swap again next year, I'll be able to get it to you. It's a perennial and should be fine. Although, our Pikes Peak perennial penstemon didn't come back this season...not sure why. I am planning on going Sept. 12th to Atlock; if you go, I can bring it then -- JLMK.
maybe we can meet up somewhere.. too bad though... and I will try and remember to take photos this time.. unlike last year.. if not at atlock
all the poppies & foxgloves are potted up... if there are any takers... Jen if you decide to come I potted up the red coleus and replacement impatiens
Woo hoo, I should be there, even if I have to bring the kiddies.
I did discover one impatien made it but the lantana didn't
oh no... if I have time I will pot one of those up too
here is the list of stuff potted up

Do you think that 'oregon rainbow' has enough yellow in it for my blue and yellow garden???
don't really know.... never grew them before... and just so you know the tags are way lager than the plants... if it's not you can always rip em out later
we are supposed to be getting some heavy rain tomorrow... but looks good for sat so far.. don't wear good shoes though!
Enjoy!! I was kind of planning on coming, but my DIL in Annapolis wants us to come down there for the day. She wants help gardening. They just moved into this 'cozy cottage,' so what could be better than gardening and spending time with 2 granddaughters. Sorry, they win out. I'll be thinking of you. I really enjoyed it last Sept.
Sounds like fun Jan, Enjoy!
I was thinking the same thing about the shoes, Allison.
What time are you planning on being there, Allison?
Jan you will be missed... but there will be other days to hang... between 9 and 9:30 Jen... Michele wanted to go to the first Lecture... we are packing a lunch and staying the day... any word from Weese??
I haven't heard anything. I'm planning on leaving here about 9.
ok we will be there when you arrive... can't wait!!!
wwwoooo hoooo it's here!!!! I can't wait!!!
I'll be there, not sure what time.
how cool... you want anything??
Had a wonderful time at Well Sweep today, I def want to go back and sit thru some more lectures. I was good and only bought 3 things but only 1 was for me.
I bought a sensitive plant and pot for my son's teacher as a thank you for a great year.
And I bought a no bake strawberry cheesecake mix from their gift shop. Looks yummy, I'll let you know how it comes out.
Of course being there I now have more plants added to my wish list.
Great place if anyone gets a chance to go.
Good to hear you guys had a good time. Pics??
Looks like the weather was perfect!!! It really is a lovely place! Glad you enjoyed it. The pics with your hand holding the tags - is that what you got? Everything looks great!
I helped the 4 yr. old plant some seeds in her garden. Daddy made 2 little beds. Some lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, and pumpkins. Also some tomatoes. They just moved into a "cosy cottage" outside of Annapolis. It is a rental and is quite charming. However, there are signs that Bambi likes the yard. LOL. I also cleared out a lot of weedy vines around the house and trimmed back some things so they don't have to scratch the cars. There is still much to do, but we got them started. It had sat empty for awhile. The landlord is happy to have people in and lives next door, so I'm sure will help them out. DIL has a great eye for design, so has the inside arranged well. There is a playroom upstairs that is perfect for the girls and a little room off the kitchen for an office/craft room for them.
Sounds nice, I love the cottage look.
sounds nice Jan... all the tags with my hand but the one in the beginning.. (which i didn't take a photo because David yelled at me for peeking at his flowers before the lecture)
LOL
I have to tell you guys that when we got home Jack thanked me for such a wonderful day. He loves going to Well Sweep. I went to the second nursery and left without getting out of the car. I think I had a sudden nightmare of having to plant more stuff. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. No more planting until September!!!
Wow, you didn't even get your free plant?
Nope..............
wow... after I was planting all day I couldn't imagine it
:)
Found ID on pic #23, the one that looked like little darts....
