| The star of this months bloom day, Arctostaphylos' Austin Griffiths' planted in 2010 . I remember when I planted it thinking it would take forever to make a substantial tree. Now here it at 5 ft ! |
 |
| An area I cleaned up yesterday . With NOID Helleborus and just starting to bloom primulas, crocus , and many other bulbs just appearing that I have or the squirrels have brought in here over the years . It's always a surprise to see what comes up or doesn't . |
 |
| Heleborus foetidus with Stachyuru Salicifolia with its tiny catkins over head. Well, that's not bad for a February bloom day . And for many more blooms visit Carol at May Dreams Gardens |
Beautiful arctostaphylos and hellebores! I really like that H. foetidus - it's looking very happy. Had one in my garden and it did not survive for some reason (possibly too cold/heavy soil for its liking here...) - wish I could grow it. I may just have another try after seeing your photo...
ReplyDeleteIn the past I've had very sad Hellebores, these two seem to be happy. I 'm tempted to try a few more !
DeleteI love Hellebores!
ReplyDeleteHappy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

I do too , but they don't always like my garden . Happy GBBD !
DeleteMy Arctostaphylos grows like magic beans. Maybe they all do that. Yours looks great in full bloom.
ReplyDeleteIf I'd known how fast they grew I would have planted them all along by back fence , not that pesky Bamboo!
DeleteGorgeous Arctostaphylos and Hellebores, and everything else! Happy GBBD!
ReplyDeleteThank you , Peter ! Happy GBBD to you !
DeleteI think we both planted 'Austin Griffiths' the same year and they look about the same size/shape. Beautiful plants!
ReplyDeleteI not sure it is 'Austin Griffths' It could be "St Helens' . I have another near the house , about the same size . I can't remember which is which ! Both are Beauties .
