Flowers
I will have pictures of the full Easter outfit, but I need to get them from other people first.
So, an update on the Flower Situation. Doing well! Lots of seeds are still taking forever to come up (or won't at all) so I did add a lot of small plants from the nursery.
The front continues to look good. Lots of sweet William left from last year. I'm hoping to move out the three small boxwood on the right and get more flowers there.
Between the snapdragons and the sweet William, there's plenty of color!
I have a foxglove!! I planted three last year; they never bloomed, and one died over the winter. But this one is going for it!
On either side are hybrid tea roses, about to bloom a bunch again. I did a bunch of pruning last week.
The back is looking bare, so I added blue salvia under one window and two different lavender (Provence and Spanish) under the other.
Southeast corner was promising with the bright existing snapdragons, but bare between them with a few tiny tiny sprouts, equally likely weeds as flowers. I added (left to right) more sweet William, a snapdragon to fill in a hole, two foxglove, and various bellflowers. And a couple purple alyssum. I'm gradually figuring out what will survive this intense climate with the limited attention I can spare. I'm not afraid to repeat plants!
And here is Marya!
