One of the early Phlox subulata: A white Primula sieboldii: The Paeonia obovata is starting: Oxalis minima: The golden Oreganum is really golden this spring: The Narcissus bulbocodium will only give me one bloom every year: One of the Trilliums is more colourful than normal. It's got more pink this year: The Helleborus "Tutu" decided to give an encore: The double Muscari are blooming a bit later than the single ones: The Meconopsis quintuplinervia, harebell poppy I think: The red, early Rhododendron that I never remember the name of: All in all it's good to be me today.
ohhh man, it is good to be you!! I can't wait until everything is blooming here,, but its snowing,,sigh,,, but strangely enough everything is turning green really fast, and budding up faster!!!
Oh WOW!!! Droopy you have some absolutely lovely plants in your garden. Your phlox subulata is soooo pretty.
Thanks Eileen. I've got three more of those, different colours, in the rock border. I'm very fond of them because of their creeping, low growth. They're perfect for low walls or as ground cover.
very pretty colors and a few flowers I don't think I've heard of # 4 & 8 but still very pretty. Thanks for posting.
I wish I knew the name of the majority of my plants it is so nice to see the names with the plants thanks they are pretty.
Fabulous photos Droopy. I love the Phlox Subulata too. I have 4 different colors that are all starting to bloom. I don't have the color you have, though. I'll have to look for that one.
What a great variety of garden flowers! Those phlox really are nice--I agree with Eileen. Nice red rhododendron too! That pinky Trillium is looking good. It's so nice of you to share these pics showing what all you have in your garden. I find it exciting when the plants begin to flower.
Thanks all. I try to remember the plant names for my own sake, but also because people suddenly ask what I've got there, and it's nice to be able to give an answer. I suddenly remembered that the rhododendron is called Baden-Baden. I'm not showing everything I've got growing out there, Sjoerd. Some of the plants aren't doing well this year, probably because of the cold and wet summer last year.
OMG---You really do have a park-garden, don't you! Boy, wouldn't I like to fly over in an ultralite and see it all at once from the air. It must be spectacular. Well, one thing that I do know: you have excellent choices, as we have seen so far. Now we get to hear that you have only lifted up the corner of the curtain...and there's MORE! Ok then, let the show begin.
Thanks Sjoerd, but it's no park, far from it. We've managed to find plants with different blooming times, so there's always something to see out there. The ones shown so far are the spring flowering perennials. We don't use annuals much, I'm afraid.
