Here are some findings on today\'s yard survey: 1. A species crocus - don\'t recall name right now. Beautiful brown markings on the back of the blooms. 2. An oddball witch hazel called Quasimodo - a dwarf. The shrub is just 2ft tall now. Blooms are equally tiny. Got to get up close to even notice them. A shrub right up my alley. 3. Hellebores getting started. 4. Adonis amurensis. 5 eyes this year, just 2 fully open. 5. A double galanthus. Those darn pendant blooms - the whole plant is 4 inches tall. I hope you can appreciate the stand-on-your-head photography involved! |
