lblanchardThe last seedpod opened today. When I came up to my office the seeds were on the verge of spilling onto the sill. So I've harvested them all. This weekend I will make up instructions and send them along to the people who've asked for them. They'll probably get 10-15 seeds apiece, enough to take up a bit of space if they germinate well.
Also: we hacked the top off the curly willow last night. It looked puny and there is wonderful bushy growth coming out where we hacked off the lesser trunk a couple weeks ago.
Also also -- a last plant rescue is coming home to roost. It is a lilac that I bought as a 6" baby, raised to a 3' plant, then relocated at a friend's in 2005. She has had a professional landscape architect come in and the pink nonfragrant lilac doesn't fit with the concept. It's 6' tall now. I guess I'll pot it up and leave it out front, surrounded by rescue irises and daffodils.
