Thanks goes out to everyone who came out and helped in creating the History Garden. It was a fun time. It’s amazing how much can get done when we work together.
The Garden has been planted with lettuce, spinach and kale. I also put in flower seeds that need stratification in order to germinate. These flowers will used throughout the Grove and maybe will be available for sale at Spring Fest in April.
Next year the garden will be planted with sorghum, broom corn along with other heirloom vegetables.
Thank you for all that you do!

Today I found 21 Gulf Fritillary caterpillars on the passion vine planted at the demo garden, a beautiful Spicebush Swallowtail sipping nectar from the verbena and a Monarch exploring the zinnia bed.

It can get too hot for gardeners, but not too hot for the multitude of butterflies in our Cedars of Lebanon butterfly garden. We have had an abundance of Pipevine Swallowtails, Spicebush Swallowtails, Eastern Tiger Swallowtails, Sulphurs, Skippers, Black Swallowtails & Giant Swallowtails. All putting on a show for visitors to the garden these last two months. See Linda Robertson’s photos, past and present, by clicking the image or link below.
