and here's some mini cannas just opening here
and
Very Spring~E Bob Thanks for Sharing :))
yes- I have stuff sticking their heads up, but I think they are happier under their blankets still...
Here are some photos of what's blooming in my yard:
My red, yellow, orange bed- my bedroom window is behind so it's a nice view.
My Tecoma Stans Tangerine- bloomed all winter- of course we had a mild winter with only 2 nights when the weather went to freezing or below.
Mexican Honeysuckle- shrimp family- winter bloomer.
2 new additions, so new that I haven't planted them yet, Pink Jasmine, smells delightful and also Hardenbergia, new to me and quite lovely!
Here's the Jasmine
Nice April. The hardenbergia is going to town here! Purple everywhere! Seems like everyone has one!
Love your Canna's bob!
hardenbergia is so pretty...makes a great cover....course i didn't put more pics of my California marigolds...(cosmos)
Have either of you grow the Hardenbergia from seed? I have a few seeds and wonder about it.
Kenton
kenton...haven't grown that from seed...but i ALWAYS...everything..whether someone else has or not....that's how i started many of my cannas....everyone said...NEVER HEARD OF THAT>..lol...go for it dude!!
now you all have given me a real bad case of spring fever!!! I miss my garden!!! My last frost date is in May!!!
Oh Gosh Anita May ! I remember back May about 29 years ago my oldest son was going to have his Second Birthday ! Us being young parents and Grandparents and great grand parents and everyone coming. May 21st even. We had bought him a super super swing set, a sand box, and a big wheel ! Can you believe it . We got a ton of snow. We lived in RI.
I was always waiting on spring too !
well spring is on the way....and i suspect if there was NO WNTER /FROST...anyplace...there probably would be NO...A.V..fanatics...there probably would be no need...as everyone would be outside gardening...lol...so that's the good news...
I complain - but I would also not be able to grow a lot of plants that require a freeze and the southern gardeners can't grow
anita absolutely...here we could use some cold hours for peaches....and LILACS..and forsythia...and a long list...of others
I hear you Anita. Our last frost date is April 15. But I am starting my vegetables from seed this week.
