Did some more transplanting in the front. The century plant was moved to make more room for the Artemisia. Pulled compost out of the pile and tried to cover the Hibiscus with it to see what happens.

Course of events

I turned the pile, the steam rose in the cool air. The potatoes were planted near the garlic. It is still to cold to do seeds. But will get the peas in in the next week. dark of the moon, roots?

Garden news

The spinach was planted Thursday, along with transplanting of some daylilies and ground layering of the Artemisia. Continuing the raking, weeding and hoeing. Potatoes were planted at the farm today and city potatoes tomorrow. The compost keeps dropping in size and steams when it is turned on the cold mornings.
Bedding plants should be done as soon as this last Blackberry Winter is over by the middle of the week.
