02:30 PM || Adkins Arboretum
Well, hopefully I’m done with my plant shopping for the season —- yeah - right! I’ve started planting one of the front borders yesterday after two days of shopping frenzies.
It started with going to the annual Adkins’ native plant sale and ending with a bargain hunt at Frank’s nursery and crafts. Adkins’ had the largest selection of natives that I’ve ever seen. I bought mostly sun loving perennials, grasses, and ferns. I’ll take a photo and put that up soon.

11:32 AM || Lower Marlboro here I come!
I just got an email back from the owner of Lower Marlboro Nursery letting me know that they'll be around this Friday for me to visit. I can't wait to see what plants they have available for sale! Now - I've gotta control myself.

There's some cool upcoming plant sales in the area...
Adkins Arboretum Native Plant Sale
I'm sure I'll end up buying loads of native plants as well as cool shade plants. Although I do need to concentrate on the front island and beds, which get loads of sun. I find the sun gardening not as rewarding as the shade gardening. Maybe that's just me.
