What's Looking Good in February 2022

Thank you @Droopy that pine looks beautiful.

 

Thought I would add ony of my Helleborus. Not as elegant as @Logan 's but a nice flower for winter.

 

Thank you @Daniel W but yours are lovely and elegant as well.

 

Bees found this hellebore today

 

Great looking pine Droopy!

And I like that pic of the pigmy owl Melody.

 

I just checked my yard for signs of spring. Nada in the flower/bulb department, but the buds on the Rhodie's & magnolias are fat.

The birds are fat too!! I'm filling the feeders daily. I kid you not.

 

Ty @Cayuga Morning. Nice Hellebores @Daniel W and @Zigs. Is the bee in a H. foetidus btw?

 

Crocus

Orange polyanthus and a few yellow crocus

 

That's what Tetters called it

 

Lovely crocus, @Logan. Are they the C. tommasinianus species or a hybrid?

Thought I recognized it. Lovely plant, but they don't call it the stink-Helleborus for nothing. Do they self-seed all over your garden? They do that here, and now I have three big ones and numerous small ones I'm trying to find new homes for.

 

I don't think that they're a hybrid, they were some free bulbs that I had many years ago.

 

They do self seed, there was another one near it

 

I can't stand hellebore foetidus Droopy. I put as many on the compost heap as possible (or bonfire) they are a pain !!

 

I quite like them. They make a nice backdrop for more colourful blooms, and they're early bloomers which is good for the insects. I also like their foliage. They're decorative all year.
