All day planting went on in the areas around the new Fern Valley "wet meadow". After work I stopped by to see if I could figure out what had gone in. Not really....I saw a lot of grasses had been planted but I'll have to wait to learn the rest. I did see the Gray-headed coneflowers and the taller Helianthus that are visible from the road. Down in the lower basin there are nice plants of Verbena hastata that, I suspect, are grown from seed that FV collected in Pennsylvania a few years back. These plants are so large they must have gone in as plants last fall so I figure it's the last of the Pennsylvania plants. I could be wrong though. Anyway they are nice.
