We had a BBQ today for the volunteers who helped do the grass cut-back.  It made for a strange day; work in the morning and setup in the afternoon.  Another gardener and I wandered around the meatpacking district looking for ice (Western Beef didn’t have any); I had a wheel barrow, pruners, soil knife, HL uniform on.  No one looked twice at a wheel barrow loaded with bags of ice, once we finally found some.

I’ve also been doing an as-built inventory of woodies in section 2.  It kind of takes forever.

Plants:  Lathyrus vernus, Cercis canadensis ‘Pauline Lily’, Nyssa sylvatica ‘Wildfire’, Pycanthemum muticum.
