lovely day new plantings

So warm in greenhouse I planted bell peppers, eggplant, sunflower replacements the snails devoured while out of town and cantaloupe. Got my hanging flower pots situated on a sign holder in the ground. Lots of snail bait sprinkled in outside barrels. Planted 3 zucchini in barrel with mammoth raspberries and nude lemon tree the snails stripped. Put 2 yellow squash in another smaller planter of mammoth raspberries.

Sunny Day

Today the basil, broccoli, sun gold tomatoes, yellow crookneck, zucchini, poinsett cucumbers, jack be little pumpkin, one celebrity tomato and blue morning glories have germinated. The air is cool but warm in the greenhouse and the two old pepper plants that wintered over are sending out new leaves. The 2 super marzano tomato plants are doing well. Didn't find any more slugs or snails today in greenhouse. I planted my sweetpeas in planters next to the greenhouse on the deck. The outside soil is saturated from all the rain and the pond is full. Still have another bag of strawberries to get planted need to buy another bag of potting soil. I will soon run out of pots in which to plant. Tonight is the yacht club potluck and Bruce made a nice stew for our contribution. So good to see the sun.
