05aug04 Jacaranda

I took the jacaranda to the porch. It is going to be in the high forties tonight. This is very unseasonable, I was hoping to get these plants to bloom. I bought the seed in hopes of having nice blue flowers for Patricia’s graduation party. I gather they are very tropical and only bloom in very warm temps so I didn’t want to put them off.
I transplanted some kale and some Hyssop. These little seedlings will get too exuberant before you know it. Mostly it was too wet to do anything else but collect compost tea for the pots that get tired without a pick me up this time of year.
