Close up of the flowers show a fascinating structure. I\'ve been nurturing a cypripedium for several years. It\'s still a small plant and puts out a single bloom each year, but it refuses to grow. Ah, well. Delosperma don\'t do well for me either - usually not quite hardy enough, or maybe they can\'t deal with our humidity. This is a small plant which has survived a year, so I\'m cautiously optimistic. Finally I\'ve always been fond of anemonella thalictroides (now Thalictrum thalictroides, I guess). It\'s a woodland ephemeral blooming in early spring. But this guy has been blooming nonstop since march. Still looking good last weekend. |
