Lamppost Basket Planting , we will be planting the downtown lamppost baskets on Second Street and the adjacent side streets. Please bring a ladder, bucket, broom, and trowel. We need people not only on the ladder, but in support on the ground. Plants will be placed at each site. A cup with fertilizer will be at each site also. The basket in front of the former Buttery will be planted so you can see the pattern. There will be 1 Dipladenia in the front surrounded by 2 Variegated Mezoo Red Dorotheanthus. In the back half there will be 1 Dorotheanthus in the center surrounded by 2 Dipladenia. Split the fertilizer evenly between both halves. Do not be afraid to knock off some soil on the Dipladenia in order to plant deep enough.
