Good morning to all! Low of 50°, 72° at 08:30, going for a high of 88°. Wind is supposed to start up sometime this afternoon. The wind is going to be the worst Saturday and Sunday. Not really happy about it, should have calmed down by now. But, we should have had a decent amount of spring rains by now and that didn't happen..... Still no rain in the forecast....
I did get one of the 2 big transplants done yesterday. Surprised I didn't get more scratches/stickers from it. Dug 2 more holes for some lilacs that have also overgrown their containers. To clarify.... these are not small nursery containers. They are 24" across. We have had better success growing the small plant in containers first, then transplanting once they get big.
We'll get those 2 lilacs planted this morning, if the wind waits a little bit, the other prickly juniper and another lilac will get transplanted. They might have to wait a few more days if Mother Nature doesn't cooperate.
Need to make a grocery run later. Don't want to do it tomorrow.... it will be a zoo with all the holiday shoppers out in force. Need to do a Costco run, but that might be on hold until next week.
Gotta get moving before it gets too hot out there.....
Everyone have a great day!
