I was in Virginia and Cancun, Mexico for a two week vacation and missed 80+ degree weather and snow as well. My weather station kept me up-to-date. I came home to find all sorts of new blooms and buds that didn’t look bad for all they’d been through! Here’s what’s newly blooming:

  • tulips
  • forget-me-nots
  • sour cherry tree
  • ornamental strawberries (lipstick)
  • lamium
  • wild ginger
  • English daisy
  • bog rosemary
  • dicentra (bleeding hearts) in pink and white
  • fritillaria
  • Leopard’s Bane
  • Foam Flower
  • Pulminaria

Also, the past two days since I have been home I have been busy getting a couple of roots and tubers in the ground that I ordered and had arrived while I was out of town. I planted the following:

  • Dahlia- Mary Evaline
  • CURCUMA ALISMATIFOLIA THAI SUPREME
  • BRODIAEA LAXA ROYAL BLUE
  • GENTIAN MARSHA
  • ARISARUM PROBOSCIDEUM (THE MOUSE PLANT)
  • ASTRANTIA MAJOR MOULIN ROUGE
  • DAHLIA BLUE BELL
  • ASTRANTIA RUBY WEDDING
  • BUTTERFLY PLANT A. INCARNATA
  • BUTTERFLY PLANT A. INCARNATA ICE BALLET
  • BUTTERFLY PLANT A. TUBEROSA
