Sabra Steinberg and Jeff Dunk donated several beautiful plants to the community garden, among them is a lovely, fuschia-colored and fragrant old-fashioned rose, Rosa 'Rose de Rescht', a variety of Lambs Ears Stachys byzantina 'Silver Carpet', and deep-purple flowering Agapanthus 'Eileen'.
If you see that the front beds need water, please water them and feel free to help weed! When watering the roses, there are two climbing on either side of the gate and then one in the larger bed near the walkway, take care to water gently at the base of the plant and to not splash any soil up on the plant or to get the leaves wet any more than necessary.
Spring Garrett donated several succulents that require a lot of delicate weeding. They are beginning to thrive so if you have a minute or two, carefully pull a few tiny weeds from them. It is easy to accidentally pull the succulents out, so take your time. Meditate.
I would like to plant the Magnolia plants donated by the Humboldt Botanical Gardens soon. I was planning on placing them in the front two interior corners of the garden fence, any objections?
I have by no means mentioned everyone who has donated plants to the garden; we are all thankful for every donation.
