More for March...

Rhamnus frangula'Ron Williams with it's fresh new growth 

The miniature 'Duc Van Tol Rose' getting pinker everyday 

I've been keeping a close eye on these Muscari'Golden Fragrace' all I could see was blue ; and I thought oh no more blue Muscari " they've send me the wrong batch". But , no I can see the lower blooms ….maybe... golden. 

Someone has really thrown out the seeds . These are new to me. I'm guessing the Sangusorba , since it's the nearest plant. 

I forgot all about the fiddly pricking out and repotting that needs to be done , I scattered to many seeds in the pots, now I'm great time trying to separate them all. and replant in trays. I think I'll just take small clumps of the  left overs and just plant them in the ground.

  1. I fell for that muscari at Joy Creek, but my little patch has never looked as good as theirs or yours. Maybe needs more sun?

    1. Ricki, That's where I saw them too, I've got mine in a sunny spot , they seem to be a bit later than the blue ones.

  2. I always just plant seedlings out in clumps, I never even bother with pricking out. That's more work than I want to do. Whatever survives, survives.

    1. Alison, I think I'll be taking a leaf from your gardening book ! I'll pop the rest in , my fingers aren't as nimble as they used to be.

  3. That's what I've done in the past, Linda. Just plop the seedlings in the ground and let them duke it out. Your Sangisorba babies look very promising. Hopefully your Muscari will not disappoint. The fragrance alone will probably make you happy.

    1. Grace , I've been doing just that, next time I'll be more sparing with the seeds!
