At the end of May, once frost was out of the forecast, we ordered plugs from our favorite supplier of native plants, Ion Exchange. New in the rain garden—and also in our prairie garden—are wild geranium, purple prairie clover, shooting star, and cardinal flower; we also added to our supply of Culver’s root and butterfly milkweed. The university’s grounds crew weeded and mulched the prairie garden, a service we greatly appreciate. Columbine and Golden alexander are blooming!
