Despite temps in the teens last week, the minute it warmed up, new blooms abound.
#1 Anemone hortensis. My favorite anemone. Not fully open yet, but getting ready.
#2 Arabis x sturii. Draping nicely over a rocky planting site.
#3 Houstonia caerulea. Just starting to bloom. At full bloom, the entire clump will be covered with sky blue blooms. I have had trouble getting it to return, so I'm particularly happy to see a bunch of babies (even the babies have blooms!).
#4 Claytonia virginica. It's easy to overlook (nearly raked it to death clearing out dead leaves today). Lots of other buds, so will get more showy soon.
#5 Chionanthus forbesii Blue Giant.
