This week I was excited to see that some of the plants in the garden are showing signs of life! The verbena, butterfly bushes, sweet peas, bog salvia, and parsley made it through the winter. The fennel we planted last spring has reseeded and there are four or five small fennel plants. The aster, sedum, coneflower, shasta daisy, daylily, and gerber daisy plants are coming up. Fortunately, due to the cypress mulch, there are only a few weeds in the garden.
There are a few projects that will need to be done in the next month.
The garden needs a ‘Butterfly Garden ’ sign. One idea is to have the children in the K-4 classes paint on ceramic tiles, the letters to spell out Butterfly Garden and/or pictures of butterflies, flowers, caterpillars, etc.
