All girls Victor? What about phlox 'David' or do you have a phlox 'Dava'? I have both girl and boy plants. My lilac is a girl though, 'Miss Kym'. She better not be waking up yet though. Also I thought wrens were from FL?
would be difficult for him to feel the plant texture if it were not a she
Yes - and 'David' is a girl.
dum de dum de dum....(waiting for dave47 to comment)
rotflol. crud, I was trying to eat something.
No Davids I know smell that nice!
Man - I just starting listing all the clematis I think I have and I am up to 57!! Probably forgot a few. And that is the number of varieties, not plants. I have no idea where they all are! That's the next step.
WOW 57???!!!!!
I love to see wrens. I put up a thistle feeder the other day and it is covered with finches. I think mostly house finches and I don't know if they are goldfinches or pine siskins. Am going to get my hummer feeder out soon, to catch the early birds hopefully. Mom has enjoyed seeing the birds and sometimes squirrels at the platform feeder outside her window.
I'm going to try my feeder again...I didn't see any last year but my neighbor gets them at her rose of sharons.
Yes, 57, and I am sure there are a few I missed! Just looked up all the pruning groups.
Woody was back.
57? you collect them like ketchup!
WWWoooooooooooooo HHHHHooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
How very exciting!!!
Carolina wrens are a treat! I see them rarely, but you can hear them say "Teakettle, teakettle", so I know a few are here. Can't believe you have 57 clems, Victor. I have 5---soon to be 6---& am trying to think of a good place for the new one. Also, my fav was climbing through one of the roses I pruned down to give to son---don't know what it will climb through now.
Plant a 2nd rose.
Congrats, Allison!
I can't believe it either. This year I will check to see how many are actually alive and growing.
Yay Allison!
That's great Allison! What a sight!
Victor, that's a lot of clematis. I mean.... A LOT!!!
So, which is your favorite of all of those clematis Victor?
Jo Ann, any less sore today? sure hope so.
yeah for the lungwort!
haha.... Allison, maybe you were the one. I couldn't remember which thread it was. But, I remembered telling them that I would show somebody how much farther along P. Majeste is ahead of the others. Was that you?
don't think so.... unless my oldtimers kicked in
the plant behind the snow drop in my photo is mine... not even close to blooming
It snowed last night barely an inch but forcast is for cold and snow/rain so no more lugging mulch today.
I'll get my April orders straightened out.
Went to HD yeaterday and got 2 bags of potting soil.
Saw the Kiosk of seeds and bags of summer bulbs.
I joined the Caladium co-op and wanted to see what 18 bulbs for 8 dollars looked like.
They wewr the size of small walnuts about an inch.
Just curious.
Last year I bought a bag and was dissapointed in the performance.
yeah I did the same a few years ago... last year they all looked like they were starting to rot at HD... the ones I got in the co-op last year were not huge... but they grew nice... I never took them out of the pot last year... but did bring them into the garage... only time will tell if they survived
Wow, Jo Ann, you got quite a bit done yesterday.
They've said snow for us Sunday and Monday night. I'm hoping that will fall through!
Allison, your pulmonarias will be going strong before too long.
I still think that it was this thread that I was mentioning how much farther along Majeste is than others, so i'll go ahead and post these.
This is rasberry splash.
Nice plants there Allison! they look great
"Diane Clare"

'Silver Streamers'
I got in the co-op too late last year... so I just got the leftovers... didn't get my choice... but they are great plants... I bought a bunch this year as well... I have so many shady spots... and they really are a blast of color... a few years ago I dug some up and put them in the garage... Randy didn't know and stacked the containers I had them in... they all rotted
can't believe your rasp. splash has those big old flower buds on that ity bity plant
Then this is 'Majeste'. It even gets about 3 hours less sun a day, than all of the others do. I'm sure that it would be much farther along if it had any direct light at all.
Nice pulmins RC
the Diane Clare looks like it's going to be a color I would like... going to look that one up
wow not what I expected... but really nice

Well, your plants sure look great for being the Runts! Shame on Randy! lol.
Yes, Rasberry splash is a little disproportionate. But, It's a larger plant than it looks. It's been there at least 6 maybe 7 years. But, it's on a steep slope and the soil has eroded more than I realized, so the foliage is struggling while it's trying hard to give the amount of blooms a plant that age should. I need to replant quite a few plants on that slope this year :-( I'm never big on replanting anything. But.... it needs to be done!
yeah I have a few spots like that... I am thinking one of my poppies might not make it that I planted last year... the soil washed away so bad that I can see the outline of where the container it came in was
Randy is working on attempting to keep our mulch on the one slope we have... not sure how he plans on doing that.. but we will see
have you ever divided any of your lungwort?
Thanks Ge!
What were you expecting Allison? is there usually some sort of coordination between the leaves and flower color?
The biggest difference between Silver Streamers and Diane Clare probably is the flower color. I've never really thought them to be all that different.
no... but your picture looks like a lime color... might just be the light
