Today I planted seeds.  I haven't had much luck in the past but decided to try some Shirley poppies in my mother's honor.  They are planted near the new Dick Clark rose tree, and in front of the large Veteran's Honor rose.  I'm also trying some Munstead English Lavender seeds in a shallow planter.  I also planted a few red geraniums with white bacopa in some large pots.  I hope these do well in both shady and sunny spots.
