today

I planted the new self-heal in a clay pot (having learned that it is related to mint, so I don't want it to spread in the ground)

and dug up a few swamp milkweeds from the first sideyard, moved them to the second where there's much more sun. In the spot I'm removing them from, the standard joe pye are all coming up where I shifted them very late in the year.

They're really puny compared to the common milkweed already starting to get established there. Need to weed more in this spot, and spread some mulch!
