Rain, and lots of it!

At long last, today it rained and rained... and then rained some more!!

Fortunately, I collected tons of it, and caught a break in it and added 2 bales of peat and also the extra smaller bale, before it rained again. After all the rain, the bog will be ready to add sphagnum, plants and seeds... just need a break in the rain! :)

Here are some pictures of all the collected rain, and then one of the bog...




Also planted an Azalea in the Acid Area, with sphagnum peat around the base.

Planted Sarracenia leucophylla and Sarracenia minor seeds in wet sphagnum and put in fridge.

**Germination notes: Yellow Candy Lily came up in dish from 5/6. Lavatera 'Silver Cup' and Habranthus tubispathus came up in dish from 5/27.
