Still going strong

In case anyone missed me I thought I'd update.

I did winter sow this year but started before I decided to get my house ready to sell and move. So instead my year so far has been digging things up to be baby sat by family members in their gardens and waiting for Last year's winter sown babies to bloom so I can dig them up and ship them off to family gardens too. I'm also trying not to leave any big empty spots in the garden in case whoever buys my place actually wants a garden this big. : ) So a lot of things are staying or just being divided as well. Here's a few pics.

my haul
That is a haul I was taking to my Aunts and some potted up things that will go with me later on.

Babies I need to keep an eye on
Here are some of the little ones I have to keep an eye on and can't risk losing in someone else's garden.

Good luck with the plants! I did the same thing and ended up bringing 80 plants to my new home. Many of them were in plastic grocery bags and sat in my new garage for a couple of weeks until I could get establish garden boundaries and get them in the ground. I only lost a couple, the rest did fine. In some respects the old house garden looked better after thinning out the plants I wanted. I didn't realize it was so overgrown. LOL

RE: Still going strong

I am very surprised by how full things still look after I've taken so many plants out.
I would have dug a bunch more out already but I'm also busy painting the house and doing other renovations.
I did get a little weeding and planting out yesterday though. My annual gaillardia sprouts are going to fill some of my empty spots very nicely. : )
