potatoes, shrubs, planting log, vegetables | permalink
After giving me daughter ample opportunities to plant the second and last of her potatoes that we started inside, I decided it was time to put it in the ground. So now there are four along the back right side of the right raised bed. All are about a foot tall, and have good root systems.
I also pulled out two of the red osier dogwood cuttings that had roots on them from the jars on the windowsill and put them next to the other two I planted the other day at the edge of the mulched area in the front meadow. So far, deer have not touched the other two, though I won't really be surprised if they get around to eating them sometime soon. I just don't feel like putting up the caging.
As usual for this spring, I sprinkled some mycorrhizal fungi into the hole for each of these three plants before I put them in.
