A Trip to Lull Farm


I went up to one of my favorite places today, Lull Farm in Hollis, NH. I go for their perennials and annuals and I always have good luck with the plants that I buy. The apple and peach orchards were in bloom. This photograph, which I took a couple of weeks ago, is of one of the apple trees in my front yard when it was first coming into bloom. Now the blooms have gone by and the leaves are out. The garden is doing well after having rain for the past couple of days. That was the main reason for going shopping today as we had sunny weather today and tomorrow is supposed to be the pick of the week. I promptly got most of my new plants into the ground and divided and moved a couple more of the established plants. My variegated Artemisia is going wild and so is the not so obedient "obedient" plant. Hopefully, the transplants will take off in the spots I have moved them to. All the other cuttings I have transplanted are looking good and healthy.
