Quite a haul

This afternoon, after the mulch finally arrived (!), we went on a little field trip to a great plant nursery that's about 45 minutes away from here. This is what we got:

• 1 white bleeding-heart
• 1 red Astilbe
• 2 Syringa lacinata (fern-leaf lilacs)
• 1 blue Buddleia (butterfly bush)
• 1 false indigo
• 1 jack-in-the-pulpit
• 1 trillium
• 1 bay laurel
• 1 lemon verbena
• 1 clump of lemongrass
• 1 red Lantana
• 1 Guara (very odd and pretty trout-speckled plant)
• 1 packet of borage seeds

Oh, and then we stopped at Wal-Mart for car-related stuff on the way home and somehow ended up with a "Pee Gee" Hydrangea.

Luckily, they were cheap. I have poor impulse control. And now I have created a whole bunch more work for myself!
