Not all my allium
We planted 4 allium bulbs last fall and they survived the winter and are putting on a good show.

Bulbs are slowly coming along

We had a brutal winter and it’s been a cool spring. The tulips are just now starting to bloom. Our hyacinths were starting to fall over after a nice rain. The forsythia has fully bloomed yet and our lilac is just starting to show signs of life.
Happy #FloralFriday
Spring, please don’t go

The picture with snow was from this week.

Finally Spring

The snowdrops, Galanthus (Snowdrop; Greek gála “milk”, ánthos “flower”), really put on a show this year. I guess they liked all the snow piled on the during this ridiculous winter. The crocus are just starting to come out as well.

The orchid that I’ve been posting images of has finally lost its flowers. The picture below is from about a week ago. Similarly the bird of paradise is done. The sap dangling from the “beak” is somehow symbolic of its expiration. We do have 6 orchids getting ready to bloom. The mandevilla is blooming (indoors!). We also are trying to grow some hydrangea cuttings.
