Yesterday it was pleasant outside. We got the wood chopping area cleaned up, all the tiny saplings there dug out and several of the the big logs from the mulberry tree that used to rain mulberries on the neighbor's driveway set up into a kind of table and chairs setup. Then I did some weeding and spotted (finally) pea sprouts. I got some Ausilio Italian Pepper seedlings in the ground, after moving some of the wood violets to the base of the new "table" to get them out of the way. The table was planned to be a chopping block for branches, but I think we'll use a different one for a year or two, and use this as a place to relax in the shade for a while, since I expect it will be pretty all summer and well into the fall.
I am still open for One Card readings and longer readings over here: https://wyld-dandelyon.dreamwidth.org/475541.html. I would love to have more people stop by, and also to be able to show off the Unicorn Key cards, which are lovely.
The tomato plants are all doing well, getting darker leaves and looking stronger since they have been out in the sun (or rain) all day and exposed to wind and the other normal stresses of living outdoors. The garden store still does not have any Cherokee Purple plants, which they always have had in the past, even when I show up in mid-June to buy them. At least I have been calling them instead of driving out there multiple times, so I'm not wasting hours finding out. (I've been calling the location where the volunteered the information that one of their employees is looking for them, so I don't have to wait while someone walks all the way back to the back of the lot where the vegetable seedlings are housed). I hope they didn't have a disaster wherever they create those seedlings!
I would love it if I could get some Northern Lights seedlings somewhere. But it's hard to even find the seeds. Those tomatoes are one of my favorites, good flavor, yellow flesh, and pretty skins. I was very happy the year I had a few of those plants and they were very productive that year too. I'll have to look for more seeds, I guess, since I have no more of them.
Well, it's stopped raining outside; it's probably too wet to do more planting right now, but there are always weed tree seedlings to pull, and they often come right out when the ground is saturated.
