In My Spring Garden


These are March and April pictures. The first thing to say is: this spring is late! Very late!



Oriental Lily baby-bulb

Moss is enjoying our super moisture!


These Hyacinths were bought as an indoor decor several years ago




Miniature daffodils



Hellebore never fails
  

Podophillum delavayi hybrid from Far Reaches shows two leaves (it was one last year)!

 Garlic overwintered

Parsley overwintered.
New kale and arugula... someone is having them for breakfast. Crane fly larvae?


Schisandra chinensis



Trillium kurabayashii 'Giant Red'

Lovely Primula kisoana





Edgeworthia papyrifera




Edgeworthia chrysantha from the NWFGS

Before planting my new Edgeworthia, I need to remove as many pieces of the Acanthus roots as possible.
I know that I'll never win, but at least, I try to have it under control.


Agave survived the winter.
I moved them close to the house, away from the rains, and covered during the cold nights.

I used to plant one of my three Abyssinian bananas in this big pot.
I wanted a change, so this year, Banana will go somewhere else.



Pink Dawn Viburnum, on the right, is waiting for a spot to be planted.


 This succulent rock will always remind me of James King, a Gardener and Hosta Hybridizer, who gave it to me several years ago.
RIP Jim

Kenai is enjoying the sun

Amur is enjoying the sun even more. It makes his hind legs less stiff

Anemone b. is blooming nicely, but to see the very first flower was exciting!

One of many babies that my Fatsia japonica gives me


Gunnera m. was my concern during the wet and cool winter.
But, it's back!




Bacchus is getting greener and greener...




Simple white hellebore is still my favorite

Astilbe emerging... Beautiful red stems


Rhubarb chinese in a pot

Little treasures

Moss is one of my favorite plants!

Lucky lilies which avoided the fate of their friends (got eaten by bunnies)


Petasites japonicus 'Giganteus Variegatus'


I think, these are seedlings of the Candelabra Primrose
