Follow-ups

River birch

Jesse and the river birch just after planting in January of 2012.

I recently said, “Next time Jesse comes home, I’ll take a picture of him with the tree like we did the day he helped me plant it. You’ll be amazed…at what a nice looking young man he is…and then you’ll notice the tree.”

Is it just because I’m his mom, or is Jesse’s need of a haircut and shave the first thing you noticed too? Using Jesse as a six feet ruler I estimate the river birch is now 15 feet tall, and it has grown 4 feet since we planted it 14 months ago.

4Another quick followup: I tried to overwinter this rice paper plant (Tetrapanax papyrifer) in my garage, but it died a few weeks before last frost. Probably just as well because I think this one spreads fast, and I don’t have time to maintain another spreader. But it was beautiful when I saw it at the Birmingham Botanical gardens. There’s more information about this plant on my blog ‘Was I Drooling?‘.

3Speaking of the gardens, my eldest daughter Monica and I went there Saturday and spent an enjoyable morning listening to Fred tell us about what plants would be available at their spring plant sale April 4-7. I have decided not to use my plant ho abilities to get into the $50 preview party for free. I felt so guilty about doing it last year that I made a big donation as penance. Anyway, after the talk Monica and I went to lunch and discussed her hanging pots.

alyssum (Lobularia 'Blushing Princess')This alyssum (Lobularia ‘Blushing Princess’) would be a great choice if we can find it. It’s one of my plant ho plants from Proven Winners, and it’s new for 2013.

alyssum (Lobularia 'Blushing Princess') and million bellsWe might plant it with this million bells (Calibrochoa). They look much better together in real life than they do in this picture. The million bells aren’t blue; they’re the same purple as the alyssum, just darker. – Photography can be tricky. – Whatever we decide, I’ll post a follow-up after the plant sale.
