[Green] Plant acquisition for fall planting of Fort Street site

[Rebecca Phillips]

Thanks, Annie! Will contact you when the order comes. Am wondering if we should have a potting party in the church courtyard for GS and Rosebud members. Any interest?

I have a lot of small cottage cheese and a little larger yogurt containers.  I could drill holes in them to be used for potting the plugs.  Annie

Andrew advised on species, so we are ordering two flats, 100 plants. What will need to happen is scavenging small pots from the recycling center and potting the plugs for holding over the summer. In a week or so, we will pick a work space and show up with trowels. It suddenly occurs to me that this might be a good project for the Rosebuds, and the church courtyard is shady most of the day. Hmmm. . . .

Rebecca,
I do not have enough knowledge to give you an opinion. Just let me know what I can do and when.

Hello, all,

Caroline of Passiflora is working with a volunteer group on the Harmar Bridge Company planting and has access to wholesale nurseries. Unfortunately, wholesale requires a $500 minimum order, which is too much for that small site. Would we be interested in sharing an order for flats of landscape plugs? One problem, though, is that if we do so, we will need volunteers to transfer the plugs into larger pots and babysit them for the summer. Another issue is that we would be getting either 50 or 32 of a single species, depending on plug size (except for those plant flats we split with the other site).

The plants in Caroline's Maple Street design are monarda "Jacob Cline" (not the straight species, but gorgeous), purple coneflower, and butterfly weed. Here is a link to the company's availability list for those who want to see what is currently available. https://www.northcreeknurseries.com/_ccLib/downloads/North_Creek_Availability_Landscape_Plugs.pdf

Please let me know ASAP.

Rebecca
