Ms. Palo's class plants a pollinator garden and more
Today Ms. Palo's students planted a plant and some seeds in the upper mini-pollinator garden. They planted a California fuschia and several types of seeds including California poppies, cosmos and zinnias. There are already butterfly bushes there. Hopefully we'll see butterflies soon! They then went to the lower garden and chose seeds that they planted in biodegradable pots to take home. They should keep the pots moist and transplant the pots into the ground when there are three sets of leaves. Tear off the bottom so roots can go down and cover the top lip of the pot or tear it off so the pot is planted at the level of the soil in the pot. Happy growing!
