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

- Dahlia- Mary Evaline
