I fertilized all the potted plants including the wine barrels with Miracle Gro All Purpose fertilizer today. I also spread some Osmocote according to directions for slow release fertilizing.
Garden Observations
The Kumasaka Camelia that I bought two weeks ago, has many buds and the one flower that was blooming when I bought it, is on its way out, petals are turning brown.
The strawberries are showing new leaves and some of the tiny strawberries are showing pink areas.
The lilies are growing nicely, some are close to 6" tall now.
The alyssum are showing half inch long foliage. They have survived the chilly cold and looks like they are doing well.
The gladioli are busy growing, some as tall as 12 inches, no signs of flower buds yet, not sure when this is supposed to happen. Gladioli are growing wherever else I planted them.
The pink Clematis Asao has grown taller, and is wrapping around the new bamboo teepee that Mike and I put together. It has only one pink flower blooming but the flower is large.. about 4 inches wide.
The snowdrift Clematis is growing too. The flowers look brown, I think it is coming to the end of its blooming season.
The rhododendron next to the laundry room has all its pink flowers open. This should last a couple weeks or so more.
Tomorrow, Saturday, April 26th, we will have some warmer weather, around 68f. That'll be a good opportunity for all plants to grow grow grow!
