Countdown to spring! One Photo per Day Part 13

Lowes has been getting a lot of good, varied plants lately, a couple of times last year I had ordered plants and found them in Lowes before my plants came in, (and they were obviously bigger and healthier at the local Lowes!) Now I make sure I check them out before I place an order! lol!

- Tiramisu is a slow grower for me too, seems to struggle a litte bit more than Citronelle to get established, - smaller too. Never had H Gingerale, I was tempted though, good to know about it's 'under-performance' beforehand!☺

I was at lowes yesterday and did not even check the nursery! Did not even think about it while i was there probably because of the rain and was buying some lumber on the other side of the store. That would have never happened at HD where i usually go even if my wife is waiting for me in the car i'll do a quick fly by. I'll be in the area again in two weeks and will check them out. still looking for another forest pansy which i think you got at one of the last year. HD only has eastern redbud right now.

"Miracle" taken the last week of Feb/first week of March 2010, was planted last summer. This one is Maine tough! ^_^

- yep, I got my forest pansy at one of the nurseries here, 7' tree with a root ball that took two men to haul it in! lol! shows some buds now, but no color yet.

- Miracle is aptly named, those Maine winters are brutal! Looks big & healthy!

Miracle is on my wish list......I have that large, new bed that needs edging plants.

Thanks Patti.
Lovely phlox onewish. I don't have any of the volcano phlox. Nice deep color.
Pretty clem pic WC. Love that brilliant blue color.
Nice heuchs you guys. Maybe tomorrow I can get out to check if anything is sprouting in the heuch section of the part shade bed after things dry out a little.

green leaves coming where all the DL are planted.

Here is a pic for today. Pretty campanula glomerata 'Superba'. It needs protection from the ground hog I have found.
IrisMa the DLs are growing here as well. Also noticed that most of the delphs are popping up too. Hope all this rain doesn't discourage them.

lots of stuff popping up here too... :::grumble::: groundhogs

crocuses popping out here.
