Overcast, raining but this is what it looks like on May 31, 2024 at Becky's Greenhouse

looks like cloudy, raining at Becky's Greenhouse 

I came over early to water and to my surprised it RAINED.  DARN just drying out from the sun and wind.  How is your garden? Is it drying out enough for you to work in it?  I know the weeds are growing faster than your vegetable plants. 
Val and Natalie worked for two days to moved out lots of the plants. Now it will be on me to keep them watered.  The bedding plants look great.  We planted a yellow wave petunia that is blooming, and we have the black petunia any ideas what to use them together.  We also have red wave petunias to work with the black.
We have lemon grass still here. Also herbs that you plant to help keep away the mosquitos such as basil, lavender, thyme, fennel, rosemary and mint.  Celebrity tomatoes along with amish paste which is a nice Roma shape tomato but bigger.  We have big boy, big beef, yellow boy, beefmaster, Cherokee purple, Juliet, red large cherry, chocolate sprinkles, early girl, marzito, midnight snack, patio and supersweet 100. 
We have sweet bell peppers as in California wonder, Jalapeno, Baron, big bertha, Candy cane, garden salsa, king Arthur, and purple beauty .
We have seed potatoes here, along with red, white and yellow onion sets.  They are on sale for $4.00 and very nice onions.  Still time to plant these.
Supertunias, wave petunias, regular petunias.  We have red and blue salvia.  Impatience and begonias are in the greenhouse as it is shaded for them from the sun.  Marigolds you can’t go wrong, zinnias are in bloom for instant color. Million bells a nice selection of them as in calibrocka.  ( I probably didn’t say that right, but you know what I mean) Several colors of coleus, geraniums are bright and blooming, yellow and red snapdragons catch your eye along with dianthus which are all easy annuals to grow. Alyssum in white and purple, moss roses.
We have air plants, carnivorous plants, sensitive plants, cactus, along with house plants that you can grow.   Lots of succulent plants with several trays at $1.00 and up.  Hanging baskets are all ready to go into your garden. Perennial wagon is full of all kinds of plants coneflowers, holly hocks, lilies, plants for the butterflies, shasta daisy, rudbeckia, hen and chicks, coral bells,hosata just to name a few.  We work hard to have a nice selection for you from bedding plant annuals, to the perennials, vegetables and all in between.  Not so common plants, that you can use in your garden and home. Trees, bushes, peonies, raspberries, apple trees we also carry. 
            What can I say we are here to help with your gardening needs.  Open Monday thru Saturday 9-6, Sunday 1-6.
Thanks to all of you that have come, thanks to all that will be coming.  Till next time this is Becky Litterer, Becky’s Greenhouse, Dougherty Iowa [email protected]  641-794-3337  cell 641-903-9365
