Man, that last picture is great, Loretta!
Are these blooming now or are you still buried in snow?
We are now warming back up after a week of cold weather.
A couple plants didn\'t blink and are still blooming.
#1 is Corydalis solida Merlin. A nice white with thin purple outline.
#2 is the first flower of Veronica peduncularis Georgia Blue (I think that\'s it\'s old name). It will soon be a solid patch of pretty blue.
#3 is a spreading patch of Ranunculus ficaria Brazen Hussy. It\'s prettier than the picture shows. Not sure why I can\'t get a good picture of it. Green/black foliage as a nice foil for the very bright yellow flowers.
#4 shows most of my daffodils didn\'t enjoy the cold - still full bloom, but lying down on the job.
#5 is Decentra spectabilis Gold Heart - wilted from cold but looks like new shoots already emerging.
