Vegetation

I bought some plants for the front porch and yard yesterday evening. They include three nandinas, to plant alongside the two I put in last year (or was it the year before?), a couple of yellow flower things whose name I don't have in front of me, some other thing that I don't know what it is, and some strawberries that I put in one of my big bean pots.

I almost always buy perennials. I don't see much sense in spending money on plants that aren't going to live very long.

I've misplaced the dozens of jackbean pods I harvested last year, but I found a few loose ones and planted those. Maybe they'll grow and I'll get some new pods in the fall.
