More

I added so many additional plants today. Here is the before and after of the truckload.

Report

• DPW secured the walk sign at the Malta median and it is well done. (perhaps too low however)
• The plants have been really growing and filling in fast.
• The neighbors to the East have been super supportive and helpful.
• I have been able to include some natives (in the box) to bring a bright smile and a sigh of relief to Denise, who is really an advocate for local natives.

• Then, unbelievably, there have been three instances of vehicles driving into the medians. The most recent was Nov 22. The photos below were made by Chrissy and I really appreciate her efforts. Remarkably, the plants were dragged but not destroyed and I was able to replant them comfortably.

Dang!

Well, it happened. Two plants were stolen. Both Agave americans. One was the largest plant in the center median and one was a small plant on the Malta/O'Shaughnessy median. I actually filed a police report: case number 110710090. You can see that the person dragged the plant out. Until they are rooted in they are vulnerable I guess. Bird netting to cover all???

Planted

Yesterday, I planted 152 plants in Bed D, the one on the south side of O'Shaughnessy. This means all beds are planted for now. So now I seek DG for a means of maintenance and beautification of course, and keeping the weeds out. Oh yes, I am sure I will be shifting plants as needed.

Added

Also Friday and today, I added a few more small agaves to the agave bed.

Side

Friday, I was able to plant one of the side medians. There were 139 plants that went into this area. All of them have been propagated, divided and collected just for this project.

Focus

Now I will focus my attention on the side medians....

In

They are in! DPW added the walk sign and I sure hope it gets secured better.
