We plant for you.  What is new this week at Becky's Greenhouse

We got rain last night Sunday May 17th.  We had wind, but no damage.  I decided to leave the wagons outside as I wanted that rain.  But tonight the wagons will be inside the east greenhouse.  The plants that aren’t on wheels will have to stay outside and hope for the best. 
I love the rain when it happens as it brightens up the plants so much more than the water, I use.   Again, stay safe tonight and this is it for a few days. 
 
Australia family and friends high today of 63F(16C) and 100% of rain.  But that will be good to have some rain for them.  Stay dry, stay safe.
 
Always adding more things each week.  We got more trees out, and we will inventory them, and post that this week. 
We plant for you. 
This is new for us this year We always plant bulbs as in lilies and daylilies.  We are planting them for this summer’s sales but not getting to them right away I am offering them now as bulbs and coms.  You can plant directly to the ground and watch them grow into the plant. You will get them as bare roots to speak of.  They come out of a very good company Leo Berbee out of Ohio, Very high quality, and large bulbs, or coms.  I have instructions on how to plant them.  This is what my mother would do.  She would order out of a catalog, and then would come like this.  Then she would plant them.  They are perennial, they like sun and they are easy.  This summer you can buy them as plants but for now give this a try planting bulbs or coms depending on the species. 
I have daylily Double Pardon me which is a rebloomer.
Daylily Happy returns rebloomer
Daylily Night Beacon
Daylily Bonanza
Daylily Chocolate Candy
Lily Natascha Rose lily  double blooms
Lily Stargazer Oriental
Lily Ramona Roselily double blooms
Added Elephant ears regular which is a huge bulb.  This will take some time to grow so the best in a pot and then you can take in the house.
Another new for me to grow will be Caladium Wildfire.  Another one that takes some time to grow but worth giving it a try.
From this company we have Asparagus roots.
Give these a try.  We will be planting them later after we get the Memorial Day planters completed. We plant for you.
