Huge gardening day. Many porch pots filled and planted, items put into the east yard to try to get something to grow amid the gravel, in the clay and shade. The nursery lady said “try these,” and so I do. Bought wholesale a huge box of anonymous peonies, got them into the ground. Planting one thing digs up another, and so things get moved around, compromising what original plan there was.
