So... I recently planted lots of different Basils in large pots, and a collection of Salvias. Also picked up some decent sized Monardas with buds on the way. I got a little Ageratum as well to go with the Salvias in a planter.

Been sick lately unfortunately, but hoping I'm better soon, so I can head out and gather a few more. Still have some spots available. One of the nurseries has coneflowers and several others available now, so I'd like to pick up some of those for the garden.

My raspberries and hibiscus are blooming away right now, and I've seen a lot of carpenters and honeys visiting them. I also have at least one carpenter that made a home in the garden. Found a new hole drilled in the wood near the raspberries, and a chunky carpenter kept returning to it. So that's several guests and at least one resident so far. Smiling
Слава Україні! Slava Ukraini! Glory to Ukraine!
