With a new shipment of colorful new annuals and perennials, the MOSI Outside gardens have a whole lot of new color popping everywhere. The BioWorks Butterfly Garden Flight Encounter has been entirely replanted with a new selection of nectar plants including lantana, pentas, salvia and anise hyssop. The sidewalk leading to the garden is also in the middle of a colorful replanting that we hoped to have finished today, but will be completed on Monday morning.
Soaring temperatures have made this a tough week for planting and the intrepid MOSI Outside volunteers have battled high temperatures and searing sun to get our new plants installed. Still, by about noon each day we are all just cooked. Special thanks to volunteers Patti W., Colleen B., Jelena J., Naomi M. and Bonnie M. for their hard work and immense help this week. You ladies are simply amazing!
