Also today I:
- Planted out cranberry bushes from Johnny's Selected Seeds - "Howes"
- Planted out my own mystery cranberry seedlings from the grocery store cranberries
- Planted out sweet alyssum seedlings
- Planted out Lovage & Salad Burnet
- Started seeds for lettuce, more spinach, swiss chard "bright lights", and beets - "bulls blood" and "chioggia"
And, my Toad Lily is blooming today! First ever! Hooray for native flowers! You can see the native virgina bluebells in the background. So pretty!

Maybe rabbits?
Hi Daphne! I don't have any rabbits in my yard at home, which is where the peas are. I suspect slugs or beetles. I've had problems with both in the past. Oh, well!
Sorry about your peas. Hope you can get to the bottom of this problem.
Those are beautiful native plants. Can they grow in the shade?
Hi Sally! The toad lilies HAVE to grow in the shade! They like it shady and a little moist, so I put down some good compost & mulch, and actually water this area of the garden. I think these lilies come in all kinds of colors - I've seen some that were white with pink dots on them, but couldn't figure out where to buy them.
