SPRING!

We now have a variety of colours and blooms, the Double Flowering Plum is putting on a decent display (though not as impressive as the spring after we threatened to cut them down...)




Here are a few Ice Follies behind a small protective fence.  Seems to work with both 2 and 4 legged individuals!


Brunnera Jack Frost is growing very well after his first winter here. 


Old Fashioned Bleeding Hearts are growing very quickly!  Well, at least the pink ones are, the white seems to be a little more reluctant.



Muscari is a great splash of colour, I was worried about invasiveness, but it is staying quite well contained.  Must not be ideal growing conditions, which might be working to my advantage.


Here is my small group of Pink Parasol Narcissus, they are very fancy with their frilly trumpets.  Bowing a little in the hot midday sun.


Moss Phlox is covered in blooms, wish I had planted these much earlier in my Garden's development.



 Now the race between the Tulips and Lilacs is on.  Both have great blooms forming, can't wait to see them!

  7. Hi Rebecca, My white bleeding heart was not as quick to establish as the standard pink one as well. Love your Pink Parasol Narcissus!

  8. Ok, so I'm not the only one that's been unable to get to the computer! Hope all is well. Let's get caught up on each other's gardens when they are frozen solid.

  9. I finally figured out how to comment on Blogger Blogs without a popup comment box. I had to switch browsers for them, as my regular browser wasn't working on them.

    I've been dreaming about early spring bulbs, as everything outside has been buried for a while now. I'm eager to see the Brunnera, bleeding hearts and Muscari, just like in your photos.

    I hope that everything is well for you. Have a wonderful 2013, and a great gardening year.

  12. It is almost like starting from scratch without reformatting the
    Apple - TV. However, we can't choose our favorite program and movie when we watch TV. For example, last year the media industry executives said Apple has been considering whether to launch subscription television services.
