Transplanting.....

I spent the better part of Sunday afternoon transplanting flowers. For the last few weeks I've been waiting for my perennials at the store to come up so that I can transplant them to my gardens at home. When I returned home from church the weather was so pretty and I knew that rain was on it's way for late afternoon, so I hurried. With shovel and gloves in hand I believe I dug up almost 15 assorted plants. My Columbine's were coming up everywhere so I gave Sarah a few for her gardens.
If any of you remember Tommy use to have a Pecan tree in front of the tavern. Some of the older folks in town have told him that it was almost 80 years old before he had it cut down. So over the past few years I have been trying to get starts off of it as they come up from seed. I have done some trial and error planting over the years and this year I think they are finally going to make it. I've transplanted five so far and I'm keeping my fingers crossed and with a little luck they will all make it. I guess you could say I've been putting my Indiana Master Gardner degree to use!! I'll keep you posted on the progress.
