Sarah, Anne, Nanci, John and David helped finish off our container plant work on this work day, though Paul did drop by. At the end of the day we had 1,600 restoration plants, 146% of our goal. All container plants are in 3-4 inch pots, use TOLN potting soil, include 9 month slow-release fertilizer and are mycorrhizae inoculated, including Glomus intraradices. The pot size is ideal for restoration planting. Click here for ending plant inventory.
There are two restoration planting dates set for Feb and March, see calendar for specifics. So our plants are destined to get in the ground. The Willow area will be mowed and probably seeded right around planting.
We left the seed flats under frost cloth as temperatures are expected into the 30’s until next week. If there is a prolonged forecast of low-30’s, then we’ll also cover the container plants with frost cloth. Stay tuned about the new structure for our Tree Inventory. The proposal will be presented to The Laguna Canyon Foundation board this Monday at their next meeting. See slideshow for pictures. (Click any pic to enlarge)
