Storms

Today was hot and muggy for the first half of the day (~92), but storms came in the afternoon and cooled things down, and added a ton of rain! 3.5 inches!

The bog isn't parched anymore... in fact, it's become a temporary pond!

Also, put seeds of Dalea purpurea, Dalea villosa, Dalea candida, Dalea aurea, Tephrosia virginiana, Baptisia minor, Baptisia leucophaea, Baptisia leucantha, Baptisia australis, Baptisia sphaerocarpa and Lithospermum carolinense in water to soak.

Planted seeds of Mitella pentandra, Mitella ovalis, Clintonia uniflora and Trientalis europaea in a container with wet sphagnum peat mixed with acid soil.
