Garden Notes: Mid-June

6/19/2019

The Spooner Agriculture Research Station Teaching and Display is almost completely planted for the season and the perennial gardens are starting to become brilliant.

What's blooming: peonies, baptisma, meadow sage, yarrow, ninebark, columbine, and coreopsis.

The vegetable beds have been planted and the display beds are beginning to show evidence of the creativity intended by the gardeners. The vegetables are doing well in colorful grow bags and the straw bale bed.

The All-America Selection display beds have been completed by the trainees in the just completed Master Gardener Level 1 training. In a few weeks you will be able to see what is intended with the Recycle, Repurpose, and Re-imagine theme for 2019.

The Teaching and Display Garden is open for self-guided tours during day light hours daily from mid-May through mid-September. Meet Me in the Garden series starts on July 16 at 6:00 pm - we hope you plan on attending.
