Finally…Plants!
I’m at it again! Three days after we moved to our cabin, I had to grocery shop. But on the way, there is a Hardware Hank that sells plants from a greenhouse. I’ve bought plants from there before. Usually, at this time of year, they’re sold out and the greenhouse doors are closed. Luckily, when we drove by last Friday I noticed that they still had rows of perennials out front and a greenhouse half full of annuals! I told my husband then that I’d be stopping there.
And on my way back from grocery shopping, I did just that! I stopped and I bought some plants! Finally! What did I buy? I bought some perennials to add to my monarch butterfly habit here including Liatris and Butterfly Weed as well as some blanket flowers (Gaillardia). And, of course, for a pop of color, I bought some bright pink annuals. The annuals were half price and the perennials, with the exception of the milkweed were very reasonable. The milkweed? Well, it was $15.00 for a one-gallon pot. It’s a lot, I know. But, anything for my monarchs! Right?!
