More Planting

With another decent day I finished most of my planting.  I put in a bed of German Butterball potatoes and sowed two short rows each of beets and carrots.  I also threw in a row of Lemon Gem marigolds.  I added a row of Bright Lights chard and Nero di Toscano kale in the onion bed. I planted the artichokes between the fruit trees and threw some purple poppy seeds and magenta columbine seeds around them.  I got both of those from Barb Crothers.  I hope they come up.  I noticed that the squirrel has already been digging in the nice soft dirt.

I've dug up both red-twig and yellow-twig dogwoods at the edge of the deck.  I have six blueberry plants to replace them.
