Activities

1:00-1:45  gathering trillium, looking for transplant and young trillium info, 3:00-4:00  transplanting violets, trillium and bleeding heart.

Observations

it was difficult to find the info I was wanting on the net

Learning Gained

you must be careful digging trilliums.  the stem is fragile and the root (bulb?) will break off if you do not expose it fully before removing the plant. 

Tools

internet, trowels, hands, gloves, bucket, compost

Future Garden Ideas/Tasks

gather and transplant more of the above plants
