The pink lilies are Asiatic lily Tiny Athlete. Don’t know the name of the red lily because a neighbor gave me them, and I don’t remember what the reddish pink small flower plant is. It starts out almost red and then fades to light pinksusanm9006 Beautiful lilies! What type are the light pink ones? Never seen those before, but love it! Also, what are those flowers on the right with the red flower. The leaves remind me of a native plant, but I cannot quite tell.
It was breezy here today. When I went to water the gardens this evening a bunch of my corn was leaning. It's wind protected on 3 sides but I don't know what I can do for the 4th. I think it's big enough to do the side dressing now. I went through and stood the worst leaners up better and moved a little soil around the roots. I think I should have firmed the ground better when I planted them. I had left wooden stakes in the ground at both ends of each row when I planted them. So I got a spool of twine and ran a string down each side of the corn. I don't know if that's a proper technique; but I hope it helps. From what I read; once I side dress it with blood meal it should help the corn shoot up. The tallest ones are getting close to knee height.
Thank you. I’m going to do that then. I think we used all the soil I bought but I can buy another bag. I have a pile of dirt from my yard; but it’s mostly sand.It has been a lot of years since I planted corn but I remember going through the patch and mounding dirt around each plant several times during their growth. I think this was to help them stay upright during their growth.
Thank you.N NY cat man Stunning!
Ooo fun! I bet my grandpa would love to see a p51 flyover. He worked on their radios during ww2.We recently had a flyover by an actual D-Day survivor C-47 and a P-51, and all I got was a piece of them as they disappeared behind a house.
