My garden peaks in June, so I'm really trying to get it cleaned up so I can simply enjoy that month
without a lot of work. As I'm weeding (a daily chore!) I'm finding a lot of little starts from last year's plants. Before I pull thin them out completely, they are yours for the asking. Right now I have:- Foxglove (variety of colors)
- Creeping Jenny (spreading plant with bright yellow flowers)
- Columbine (not sure what colors...)
- Tomatillos (necessary for this enchilada sauce)
- This rosy-red perennial (bottom right) that I can't find the plant tag to...
Hi there! Found you on a google search for Jeff's U-Pick in Dayton (their number goes to some weird voicemail now). But I'm glad to have stumbled across your blog--I'm a friend of Dustpan Alley.
ReplyDeleteAnd I couldn't help but contribute: that rosy-read perennial is valerian, or Centranthus ruber. Love, love, love the stuff.
Nice to find you!

Thanks for commenting! I'll have to update the local upick numbers. Thanks for the plant ID too. I have the tag somewhere but didn't have it handy when I wrote the post! I love it too and have passed quite a bit on to friends. Are you here in Mac?
