I agree about a week making a big difference right now. I am in England for 8 days and I know my garden will be completely changed when I get back to PA. Lots of blooms, like my milkweed, were in bud when I left. I hope the move went well and that we get to see pictures of your new granddaughter!

Maybe some day I'll be able to have tours of my garden but right now it's still under construction. I'm still struggling to get everything planted as the extreme weather this spring has caused replanting some things three times. Yesterday, I replanted my sweet corn because it was pounded by hail and washed out with six inches of rain racing down the steep bank behind my garden. I still have cucumbers to get planted from the seed starts. Never have I had such late plantings as this year. With 117 days of frost free growing there's still hope for a harvest, don't you think? There's always hope when gardening.<br /><br />How do you keep your water garden from becoming a mosquito breeding ground and growing algae? My rain water collection tank has a water fountain in it to keep the water circulating. It's also mostly covered with a tarp to keep the algae from growing. I still am hopeful that I can catch some fish from the local water shed ponds to live in the big tank until I drain it in the fall. At that time I'll just return them to the lake.<br /><br />Have a great day in the Nebraskan garden.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00571521947867768070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-44085669104781187402014-06-18T20:37:34.014-05:002014-06-18T20:37:34.014-05:00Hi Sue, Your garden looks great!

I love your Salvia memorosa and the Prairie clover is so different from anything I've seen around here. I'm so happy for you that you will be a Gramma again. A little girl.

Is this your first? I see the east coast natives and want to grow them but they are mostly not native here, and don't do as well as yours. My poor Asclepias tuberosa doesn't seem to have come back. I did get germination from some annual curassavica so I will hope they can bloom before fall. I do have the related houseplant Hoya giving me some of those great waxy blooms, and perfuming the air as well!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773149110503024929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-34935244710970098042014-06-16T07:17:35.736-05:002014-06-16T07:17:35.736-05:00I am just amazed every time I visit, Sue, because ...I am just amazed every time I visit, Sue, because I've planted so many different native seedlings and seeds that haven't made it here. You certainly have the golden touch when it comes to growing all these natives. I'm glad others were able to tour your garden--I'm sure you inspired a lot of people to plant more natives. That 'Spooky' Dianthus is a new one to me; really unique! Good luck with the move, and best wishes to your daughter.

I know I would want to linger there where there was so much to see.
