Today's the day the greenhouse came down. All the seedlings are ready to be planted out and will no longer need the shelter. The watermelon and more corn were planted into bed 2 today. I didn't see any more wireworms while I was digging around. It doesn't mean they weren't there, I just didn't see any. After planting I gave the bed a good watering and mulched it with shreaded bark. It's what I had on hand. I also transplanted the Banana into a larger container as well as a light yellow double flower Angels Trumpet. I'll take photos tomorrow of bed 2 and the Angels Trumpet.

Now you don't.
I cleared everything off the patio and gave it a good sweeping and hosed it down. Now I have a clean slate to work with. Look at all that room!
While I was doing my thing the carpenter bees were busy with the raspberries. There were four of them on the canes all day from sun up to sun down. I haven't seen any honey bees in the garden yet. This worries me a little. Last season they covered my passion vine and the large Angels Trumpet tree.
